Martinez inhereted the Overrated status from Paul Williams. Compare the two notable wins from Donaire and Martinez. (Paul Williams + Pavlike) vs (Darch vs Montiel).
IMO Martinez is still untested. Pavlik was exposed by Bhop and Taylor, he was probably going downhill having that problem in his arms and alcholism. Paul Williams is the most overrated fighter of all time with no defense and only uses his size advantage over his opponent.
Darch and montiel was on top of their game when they lost to Donaire. Its a no brainer.
I want Martinez to fight fighters like Pirog, Bute, Froch,Kessler- solid fighters before we know where he belongs.Comment

im not saying it isnt legit. it isnt great. it isnt darchinyan and montiel. sydorenko wasnt devastated by moreno but his stock dropped heavily after those fights. would i say he was prime after that?? no. i didnt see his next fight, true. but the fact thathe hast had any fights recently tells u wat he thinks about his career at this point. sydorenko was always good imo, but he was never that great.
He fought Donaire like 2-3 months ago. And his fight before that a few months prior to the Donaire fight.
Sydorenko has been considered a top 5 Bantamweight since 2006 and still was when Donaire fought him. That's all there is too it man, credit where its due.
His first 2 fights at Bantam have been against two top 5 Bantams, one that was considered #1 by The Ring.Comment

Froch should easily be on there before Segura and the Ring can eat a wee wee for ranking Nonito above Sergio after his only notable win since Darch 4 years ago while Sergio has been putting in good work regularly.Comment

bradley shouldnt be on there until he unifies with khan...he isnt even the linear champ yet. campbell (nc), peterson (ud), witter (sd), holt (sd) and alexander (td) isnt that impressive to meComment

You've lost me here. The fact he hasn't had much fights recently?
