    Simple question what is your top 5 at WW an why
    1.Mayweather (WBC WW/WBC WBA JMW Champ)
    2.Bradley (unbeaten WBO Champ wins over JMM/Pac)
    3.Maidana (WBA Champ 4 fight win streak including upset of Broner)
    4.Porter (unbeaten IBF Champ coming off upset of Alexander)
    5.J.M. Marquez (coming off loss to Bradley but keeps top 5 spot by way of Pac KO)

    Here's my top 5 my list is based off of recent accomplishments and what fighters have done in the past few years I.e. level of comp, titles won. Whos your current top 5 @ 147

    So what happens to your lists as soon as Pac demolishes Bradley again?

    first off Pac didnt demolish Bradley at all. lose the last 3 rounds in that fight with Bradley on 1 foot.

    if Pac wins the rematch I would probably put him over JMM and if Maidana loses then i would put him #3 in my list with Bradley still ahead till they fought a 3rd time

    I don't care about the list, but Maidana is not top 5 no matter how you cut it.

    Floyd
    Pacquiao
    Bradley
    JMM
    Porter
    Thurman
    Alexander

    All these guys are better fighters at 147. People are overrating the overhyped Broner win.

    I truly believe when porter tries to throw all that leather, Thurman stops him in his tracks with a left hook.

    If does seem odd not having Pacquiao in my top 5 but again fighters 2-5 have all been surging while Pacquiao has gon 1-2 possibly 1-3 in the last 3 years with that win being against a non top 5 JWW. I think he can regain a top three spot if he can beat Bradley (think he loses again) and when Maidana eventually losses in May

    Do you see numbers? I don't. I'm put up a list of fighters who are better fighters than Maidana.
