But what does p4p mean? What other fighter would you pick to beat Rigo if they were the same size? I can only name 1 that has a chance, and that would be Ward with his inside fighting and ability to make it an inside fight. There is one guy who I would pick clearly over Rigo, but he isn't in the paid game yet.
Marquez and Cotto are both better victories that a victory over Donaire. Mayweather also beat Marquez and put on a better boxing performance than rigondeaux did against Donaire.
He's got time to get there, maybe if Floyd retires and Ward gets one punch ko'd we can put Rigondeaux there after he stops Mares and a few other people
Wait a minute, all it takes is one good win and now a guy is p4p no.1? Mayweather has beat 4 fighters who were ranked in the p4p top 10 when he fought them and he's fighting another one in a few weeks. 6 of his last 8 opponents were current world champions who were ranked in the top 5 in Mayweather's division or higher. His last 3 opponents were all ranked no lower than 2 in their division, were current world champs, and two of them will probably be enshrined in the HOF.
Rigo is MONEY and BIG TIME But he's no #1 He's a definitely top 10, possibly top 7 at this point. He honestly gave Donaire a boxing lesson of a lifetime. Not only that, he made Donaire run scared in the 12th. Busted his eye in the last round Rigo a G
