He's top 15, I'd say. He's in that Nonito Donaire category. Close but not top 10.
Is there 10 better active boxers than Sergio Martinez?

Not yet but in the future yes. I can't rank Amir that highly yet until he prooves he can take a good shot, not taking the Maidana fight shows he's not ready for punches yet.Comment

Williams was preparing for Pavlik. So I wouldn't say "In addition".And consider that he was ripped off against Cintron and could (should) have drawn with Williams.
He is mature and has the skills to beat any guy in 154 and probably 160 on any given night. I can't really think of any better in those 2 divisions than him right now and it is a shame really. Before the Williams fight, the guy got no credit at all and was considered a bum. In addition, he only had 4 weeks to prepare for the Williams fight while Williams had been training for months.
Top 10 or 12 P4P guy right now.Comment

Right and where did he get 4 weeks from..It was 17 Days.
Williams struggles with southpaws and I still had him winning.
Martinez is very overrated on these boards...when he does not have a big win at all.Comment

Coming from a Punisher fan,he has more boxing skills than Williams,I think the Punisher's reach & hight advantage along with his workrate is what makes that fight a tough night for both!!I also think Martinez beats any welterweight elite who has or can fight at 154 right now!!I believe he can make Pavlik look like an amateur if they fight,in short,the man is very good & highly underrated!!Comment
