Ward over Mayweather. Christ sakes. The guy has fought at one weight and Mayweather has been fighting guys out of his weight class for years.


Viloria just lost.

Awful list.

I don't think you read the article. Viloria is not on the list anymore bud.

Terrible list. Ward at #1? Hahaha..

[bojangles1987]

Love the list.

[PACnPBFsuck]

WAIT, so Pacquiao is still top 10, but Nonito is off, I understand Nonito being off, but no one in the boxing community can justify Pac on any top 10 PFP list.

I rate Andre Ward highly.

However... how on earth can you justify putting him P4P #1... above Mayweather, above Juan Manuel Marquez, above Pacquiao even.

Andre Ward has not traversed weight classes. He's not fighting at light heavy and dominating. All these multi weight world champions and he's above them, P4P, when fighting at his ideal weight class? Mayweather could be fighting at 140. Pacquiao, JMM at 135. They go up because they cleaned up, and have bigger fish to fry.

Andre Ward's "bigger fish" was pulling a guy down a weight class.

He is an incredible boxer, obviously very skilled and obviously the best current super middleweight in the world. Best P4P? Let's see him get out of his comfort zone first. Hell, he barely even leaves his home town.

The last time Pacquiao looked impressive, he ended up going to sleep. Ward would never waste his time with a Ramos or Fendchenko, and I do mean never. I think that should answer your question. I don't see how a case can be made for those two over Ward, no way.

thats crazy. marquez just chinned the p4p top 2 fighter, but that doesnt even matter, just look at their skill set. marquez is a master, ward is a bit dirty really.

Halfway through the year, it’s as good a time as any to take a snapshot of the best of the best across boxing’s seventeen weight divisions.

The previous list, last updated on December 30, 2012, ranked them:

1) Andre Ward
2) Floyd Mayweather
3) Juan Manuel Marquez
4) Sergio Martinez
5) Nonito Donaire
6) Manny Pacquiao
7) Carl Froch
8) Abner Mares
9) Brian Viloria
10) Wladimir Klitschko

In the six months since, seven of those ten men have gone to scratch with Donaire and Viloria suffering defeats at the hands of Guillermo Rigondeaux and Juan Francisco Estrada respectively. Only Ward, Marquez, and Pacquiao remain inactive to date in 2013. Marquez and Pacquiao have fights scheduled. Ward, recovering from shoulder surgery, in expected to be in action by the fall.

Ok, boxingscene writers make me sick! They clearly have a hatred for Floyd that is beyond overt! I'm done with this site. Not because I'm a fan of Floyd (I'm from Oakland and if anything my loyalty is to Ward), but because the journalism on here is completely biased and incompetent. Whoever doesn't have Floyd at #1 is an idiot, period.

Unbookmarking Boxingscene.com as I type. Getting my news from fighthype and ESPN from now on.

Froch is 5th on the list for for beating Kessler? A guy that he was supposed to beat? So if Kessler beat Froch would Kessler be top 10 p4p? I don't think so. I can understand pushing Rigo up there, he did dominate a legit p4p fighter and was giving away weight come fight night too.
