    He wasnt #3 P4P

    Thats just not the kind of Criteria the RING uses

      The Ring have admitted that they're aware of the criticism around keeping Donaire on the P4P list for fighting bums before the Montiel fight. They just favored him heavily. They were also one of the few lists that kept Manny #1 after Mayweather beat Mosley. So don't be surprised if Sergio doesn't make #1 this year. It's all subjective.

        One of the few? The majority of p4p lists still had manny as #1 or at least it was split. The Ring was definitely not in the minority that's for sure.

          You're right. I think he was #4. My point still stands. As far as I can tell, they have a subjective arbitrary criteria because otherwise it doesn't make sense to move Donaire in front of Martinez. They could subjectively decide Dzinziruk was a very good win. Enough to move him at least to third.

            It was a nice win, nothing special

            IDK, MAYBE he moves up ahead of Donaire but no further
