    Martinez is classy but I do think that big come forward fighters with sloppy defences have helped him alot. He got 2 awesome wins but everything else has been quite poor. Not all his fault though. Nevertheless, he did light up Williams and he is a light middleweight who beat the linear middleweight champ. The fact they have both been in a downward spiral did not help. Williams and Pavlik were considered power houses who would wreak havoc BUT that isn't the case anymore.

    Not if you're going to hypothetically take that win away also.

    If you took away all of Floyd's and Pac's best wins, where would you rate them P4P?

    Bit of a silly question, really. That's how you rate people, based on their best wins!

    The hardest part about the top 10 is how to rank the top 3.

    Martinez is anywhere from 4-7, with Donaire, Wlad and Ward.

    Unfortunately too many fighters prefer to face bus drivers rather than their leading contemporaries and thus can't compete with the big 3.

    Each of the top 3 have charges against them to be honest.

    Mayweather has only fought an old Shane and a bum in Ortiz in the last 2 years.

    Pacquiao has had three ''let's hug'' fights in the same period, and a lopsided loss to Marquez, robbery aside.

    Marquez has been inactive himself, and lost to Mayweather.

    Obviously the Pacquiao fight is a more suitable stylistic matchup and he did the weight better.... but the fights were almost equally one-sided.

    You probably have to rank Mayweather top, with Marquez immediately behind him in 2nd.
