    Well said Boxed Ears.

    I mean, is middleweight Wlad lighter but still blessed with height? So he's like 6'3 instead, but obviously then a skinny corpse.

    6'5 Sergio still a quick, hands low speedster?!

    Stupid argument, dunno' why it ever got airtime back in the day.

    Of course, he'll still be sexier than Klitschko...I didn't mean he wouldn't be...

    Becuase he beat Cintron, Pavlik, Williams and Dzinziruk. He beat them all in dominant fashion.

    Hindsight is a ***** but you've forgotten that Williams and Pavlik were VERY highly ranked.

    Pavlik shouldn't have been at that time. Despite being the no.1 at 160, post-Hopkins he'd fought a midget and Rubio and looked lethargic in both fights.

    Cracking Williams' chin remains highly impressive.

    Marquez for beating bums like Katsidis and Diaz?

    After the 12 round embarrassing schooling he got off Mayweather he should be banned from any P4P list as he's clearly not elite level.

    A lot of people literally thought he was P4P number 1, he was "unbeatable from 147 through 160" according to many in the general, and there was even talk of him competing at the top level all the way to 175lbs

    This is why it was so funny when Martinez splattered him

    Hes highly ranked b/c the people who make these sort of lists are hipsters who hate mainstream fighters.

    Martinez isn't a mainstream boxer?
