JMM P4P number 3

Here is the latest Ring magazine pound for pound rankings for the period ending June 25th 2012. #1 vacant. #2 tie between Floyd and Manny. #3 Martinez. #4 Donaire.5 Ward. #6 Marquez. #7 Wladimir. #8 Bradley. #9 Vitali. #10 Ward. It's just a matter of opinion, so put Marquez where you want or leave him out of the top 10 if you don't think he belongs there. Marquez at #6 sounds good to me. He is old but he is still damn good in my opinion.

do they really have pacquiao out front? i generally dont care for most of their writers, but that's a particularly awful decision floyd mayweather is currently my number one, by virtue of his recent schedule and performances, and one of his opponents is going to need to prove otherwise before i remove him from the top spot i think andre ward might be a better fighter p4p than 35 year old mayweather. he's on a better run. but i'm not quite there yet. not yet. if he beats chad dawson decisively he's easily the best p4p fighter in the world. to make it worse look what the damn writer wrote for his reason of manny being #1 The Take: After squeezing by archrival and then-Lightweight kin Juan Manuel Marquez in a close one last year, Pacquiao decisively defeated the best Jr. Welterweight in the world, Timothy Bradley, for his sixteenth straight win…then came the scores. In one of the oddest robberies the sport has seen in years, Pacquiao got the business in Las Vegas in a fight where he appeared to win at least eight rounds. In the Marquez fight, there were plenty in the press who saw it for Pacquiao or at a draw. The Bradley verdict is almost unanimously decried. Decisions as bad as the one rendered June 9 deserve to be ignored. Pacquiao went into the fight with the top spot here. He did nothing in the ring to lose it and performed well enough against a high quality foe to secure his continuation at number one. now look what was written bout floyd and tell me how he isnt #1 The Take: At 35, Mayweather won his most exciting and competitive fight since Ricky Hatton and this was far harder work. Miguel Cotto came to win and Mayweather refused to allow the possibility. It was splendid stuff and nearly enough to elevate Mayweather past Pacquiao. Both of the game’s best, short of fighting each other, chose next-best options and kept alive the debate about the very best. Mayweather is cooling his heels in jail for a couple months but when he comes back he’ll find the fistic world still his oyster. Is Robert Guerrero, shortly to be fighting for an interim WBC belt at Welterweight, being positioned as his next challenger?

id love to know how they can have Manny as p4p#1 and keep a straight face to be honest do they really have pacquiao out front? i generally dont care for most of their writers, but that's a particularly awful decision floyd mayweather is currently my number one, by virtue of his recent schedule and performances, and one of his opponents is going to need to prove otherwise before i remove him from the top spot i think andre ward might be a better fighter p4p than 35 year old mayweather. he's on a better run. but i'm not quite there yet. not yet. if he beats chad dawson decisively he's easily the best p4p fighter in the world.

There's already a thread for this...:sigh1:

I'll repost what I posted in another thread. "I don't know why he gets a pass doing this (fighting low level fighters). People keep claiming he is better than Pacquiao and should be 2 P4P and yet he gets away with crap fights.. look who he has fought between the Mayweather and Pacquiao fights: Fedchenko.. Likar Ramos.. Unneccesary rematch with Juan Diaz.. Rocky Juarez.. And now he is fighting some 19-1 Sauaban guy.. If this were Floyd, Pac, Ward or any other guy in the top ten they would get hammered with complaints! Hell, even Cotto would be critisized for such low opposition..

Not really universally recognised as #3. I guess he has a small claim but you know its all opinion. Personally, if you are going to say Pacqiuao/Mayweather are joint 2nd, with no first (like the Ring, for example) then i'd personally say Ward would have more of a claim to 3rd than JMM, but I think Ward is p4p the best. Its all opinion

how the hell is JMM rated at number 3 if all he is fights are cab drivers? boxing scene pacquiao love is so much they put him so high just because he unofficially beat pac? http://gifsforum.com/images/gif/clap%20clap%20clap/grand/clap_clap_aplause_gif_879.gif

Behind May and Ward..Yes he is #3. And by your logic then why are so many having Pac rated so high after OFFICIALLY losing to Bradley. thats true, Boxing scene is full of S****

Bitter Pactards hating on Pacquiao's father.:lol1: Mayweather fights top contenders and he is number 2 and JMM keeps fighting cab drivers and he is number 3? got to be ****ing kidding me
