    Nobody is close to be honest. He's on a 45 fight win streak, with over 20 champions. and 20+ title defenses. 1 split decision, 1 Majority decision on his entire resume. The rest are UD's, TKO's, and KO's.

    It's not close right now.

    People seem to forget Money chased Oscar,Mosley and Casamayor but he was ducked. So now that he has the crown I see nothing wrong with him calling the shots.

    Thats my point. He paid his dues. He worked hard to get the big fights. There was a time where he be was #1 P4P and still wasnt selling tickets. I remember him calling out Shane, Tszyu, Casamayor, Oscar, Cotto, etc. And no one wanted to fight him. Now that he's on top, he should fight whoever he wants. And most of the time, that opponent is a worthy challenger as far as ranking goes. Either champion or Mandatory. But just so far back on a talent and IQ level that the fights are one sided. Which isn't his fault.

    I wouldn't put him at the top of the list, but I'm surprised Sergio Martinez hasn't had a mention yet. I'd put him ahead of Bradley, anyway.

    Actually, Oldbie, I didn't say I wouldn't put Floyd at #1. I said I wouldn't put Sergio there.

    I guess Floyd is still #1 but Rigo isn't far behind, and possibly ahead on sheer talent, though Floyd's achievements are of course vastly superior. Ward is probably next. Pacquiao isn't the fighter he was but I'd certainly put him and Sergio ahead of Bradley.

    I'm a HUGE Rigon fan. Next to Mayweather, he is the highest skilled boxer around. However, at this point in time my sensibilities can't see putting him in the top 5 p4p list until he throws Arum to the curb and puts more top tier wins under his belt.
    Pac is out due to his face first kissing of the canvas at the hands of JMM. Even with his loss to Mayweather, I have JMM ahead of Pac.

    My top 5 is;

    1. Floyd Mayweather
    2. Andre Ward
    3. Bernard Hopkins
    4. Juan Marquez
    5. Sergio Martinez
