    Trout at no.8?!!!! Jesus :-(

    They look to be a very reactive set of rankings, based off one win. How Rigondeaux can be above Marquez and Trout in the top 10 when they have nothing behind their signature wins beggars belief to be honest. Bradley above Donaire is a strange one too.

    I assume Martin Murray will be top 5 p4p in your mind then should he win in Argentina?

    Yeah funny as **** mate :roll:

    Boxrec fan what does that even mean? I'm calling a fight the way I saw it, and in no way was it a schooling, not one little bit it was a close fight and a tactical fight were riga did a lot of good work on the back foot. I blatantly stated in the previous post I had riga as the winner but it was close no getting away from it. ****ing schooling, get a grip.

    He has the assets (footwork, defense, punch, chin, ring iq) but is lacking the resume for now. Looking forward to seeing him at the very top after Floyd, Marquez and Pac are retired.

    Agree. As has been seen said to go straight to the top of the list off one fight then it needs to be against a consensus number 1 really. As good as Rig fought, Donaire wasn't even consensus number 3. Yes some people would've put Donaire there but there are plenty who wouldn't have.

    Would feel uncomfortable putting him in above Martinez, JMM or Wlad either right now. (Given Ward and Mayweather are at the top)

    Calm down. Until someone can achieve what Mayweather has over the last 12 years he is clearly number 1. There isnt even a debate. And no Andre Ward isnt P4P number 1. He was fighting bums when Floyd was already a world champ and guess what floyd still is at the top after all that time.

    I thought he'd win it anyway and I believe the southpaw style he has was a big factor. I dont rate nonito nearly as much as some folks, imo he is a decent banger but always gonna come up short against a good boxer. (only just watched the download as I fell asleep with a bottle of vine in my hand on sat night and avoided the result til I watched it)

    I spotted some little flashes of "sweet pea" in his style and wee bits of mayweather here and there. good fight to watch for some but probably dull for the non aficianado's :)
