    I don't know if this has been posted already or not, I didn't see anything.

    Mijares is now at number 10 on the list. I believe he replaced Rafael Marquez, not 100% sure.

    thoughts? Is he top 10 already?

    nice. a win over montiel for undisputed status puts him in the top 5 imo.

    Awesome, great to see he's getting the credit he deserves. I personally rank him about 8 or 9.

    I said it as soon as he won (though it should've been quite obvious) that he should replace Rafa Marquez after his performance last saturday.

    Great for him.

    Hard to see Marquez being squeezed out on the basis of that 12th round vs. Vazquez but it's good to see Mijares make the list!

    yep. nice to see he's now a "official" top 10 p4p fighter, since a lot of people go by the rings rankings. he should rank above hatton,who should'nt even be in there.

    They shouldnt have to throw rafa out, Hatton and Bhop should be off that list

    Great news, Mijarez deserves to be in the top 10.

    I also agree that Rafa should stay up there without Hatton.

    I read them the other day, it's freaking ridiculous. He even said that 'Anyone who doesn't think Winky Wright is top 5 p4p in the world doesn't know what they're talking about'. De La Hoya is #13 and Mijares isn't even top 20.
    :patsch

    its all subjective , but with the ring and gregs site it helps if you are mainstream american tv orientated.

    chris john, 10 defenses , beat marquez legit on one of them and still prime

    calderon, outboxing all the little men forever

    molitor-under the radar box fighter would give marquez or vasquez even chance.

    wlad-always a puzzle to me, a man taller than most in his weight class with 1 punch power and good boxing abilty, never rated on p4p basis despite his resume andlongevity.

    if the ko`s count against him why not other fighters.

    haye/again huge puncher/back to back unification fights , similar resume gets pavlik into the top 10 but not haye.
