    I think he has a good claim.

    It would help his case a lot if the judges and ref didn't completely **** up his fight with Cintron or at least scored a draw with Williams.

    But with guys like Donaire being on certain lists I don't see why Martinez can't be.

    Most definitely, and also the fastest rise from nobody to p4p in most recent years. A few years ago martinez was a nobody even in hard core
    circles. anybody notice how his style closely mimics calzaghe's. Now imagine what sergio would have done to kelly had he been 15 pounds
    heavier and 2 inches taller. That's what joe and kelly would've been like.
    The calz haters said joe was ducking kelly:lol:

    Top 10-15 yea, I think so. I would have to really review it. He has a **** resume, he's got Pavlik and Cintron in the W column and PTP in the L column, and 10 years ago he lost to Tony Margarito. Those are his notable fights. Other than that nothing so much. So, he might be 10-15 range.

    He deserves to be on there more than Donaire and Caballero.

    He is close, but his loss to Paul Williams might keep him out since I didnt't have Pavlik in my top 10.

    Him and P W were in before this fight. Now they both might move up.

    I was making the comparison between him and Calzaghe in the fight too , Martinez moves a lot more laterally than Calzaghe though but there styles are similar !!!! :good

    If you had him beating Paul Williams it would be silly not to have him in there.
