    I don't see any reason why he should rise since Roy Jones wasn't even a top 5 LHW according to their rankings.

    I rank him over Marquez though with Pacman as number 1 (until DLH KO's him) but a case could be made either way.

      I had him at 2 prior to the fight and I think he should stay there.

        All well and good but isn't your sig a little racist. You are implying Roy Jones had a great career. If you were really from Finland would you say this?

          He should be number 2, Marquez beating Casa IMO is not as good as beating Hopkins (in light of his thrashing of Pavlik)

            Tad surprised. I think he was just about 2 before, and this shoulda just pushed in over in Ring if he wasn't already there. If Pacman loses it'd be weird to have JMM #1, and Calzahe #2.

              They put Marquez above Calzaghe after the win over Casamayor though so it's not like they dropped Calzaghe in the rankings for dominating Roy.

              All well and good but isn't your sig a little racist. You are implying Roy Jones had a great career. If you were really from Finland would you say this?
              It actually means that Calzaghe had a great career, not Roy.

              Yes, I've turned by back on black people.

              I'm now all about white pride, a self-hating black racist Finn who pretends to pretend to live in America, spreading propaganda as always.

                Yeah but Hopkins beat pavlik after the Calzaghe fight. so that wouldn't push calzaghe any further up the p4p list.

                  i have him #2 over jmm. i think joe's last few wins have an edge, given that jmm also lost recently.

                    Yea true BUT it proves that the Hopkins Calzaghe beat could beat almost anyone from 160-175 which IMO means he should be up there at 2 with Hopkins at 3 and Marquez at 4.
