The real question is no 2 or 3 imo? I mean beating bradley ( again) can really put pac in no 2 especially due to wards lack of activity in the coming year.
I would rank pacquiao number 5 behind mayweather, ward, Bradley, marquez , my reason for number is that pacquiao lost recently to marquez, mayweather and ward of course kept winning dominantly, marquez remained on p4p list even before ko of pacquaio and with it stepped up a notch ahead of pacquiao, even if pacquiao was on his way to stopping him marquez, technically marquez was inching closer to inevitably scoring that ko, it seems like it was meant to happen that way, like a perfect ending and strong statement on their rivalry which is such a great rivalry... now Bradley kept winning against solid competition as well, like many people I thought he lost to pacquiao BUT when I watched the fight with the volume off from annoying jim lampley sucking pacquiao **** and not giving Bradley any credit for anything, I saw it was closer than what ppl said. and now Bradley beat marquez and is still undefeated, it puts him up there, and I also think Garcia can debate with Bradley on his spot as well, Garcia beat up the so-called next pacquiao in Lucas matthysse, ppl were on his jock and now it stopped, Garcia kept winning and is still undefeated, Garcia is strong number 6 pound for pound on my list
Number 5? WTF! Number 5 behind Bradley and Marquez even though he already beat Bradley twice and Marquez just lost to a person (Bradley) who already beat Pac twice. What kind of thinking is that? Not to mention Pac vs Marquez fights were 2-1-1 in favor of Pacquaio.

Rigo needs more work. The Donaire win was tremendous but aside from that, I mean damn. #3 P4P? No. Not yet. Ward is solidly at 2, and even a dominating Manny over Bradley performance can't erase the Marquez flat line. So there's no way he can leap frog Andre Ward.
I think 3 sounds good. Although it's weird discussing a "what if Manny beats TB" thread when MP already beat him. What a boxing world we live in.
