1) Andre Ward

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.

Haha he'll be back.

Complaining about bias but he's gonna get his news from FloydHype. Lol

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.

Ward is a master of his craft as well, his ring awareness is up there with the best of them. He doesn't have the fanciest defense but he rarely gets touched. The fact that he's performing this well against top class opposition, I can't see how a case can be made for Marquez. On top of that, it wasn't like Marquez was as sharp as he's shown in the past, it wasn't like he wasn't getting battered either, he may have finished Pacquiao impressively but I felt he looked much better in the 3rd fight overall, and established himself as the better fighter a long time ago.

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.

Seriously. Pac just got KTFO by a blown up lightweight.

Where is Bradley? The list makes no sense.

Turble

I saw a list of STD's that looked better than this. I must admit, I just knew Alvarez was going to be in the top ten because of the upcoming fight.

Rigo over Froch and Mares?!?...gtfoh!!!...no love for Donaire and Bradley but Pac got iced and hasn't officially won a fight since 2011....Ward is the king, he's driving the throne and Floyd is riding ******* with Marquez chilling out in the back sippin' on that gold water ....Rigo is cool and his skills makes him worth mentioning but his body of work is not that deep....I love how Rigo schooled Donaire but it wasn't worth a top 5 spot on the p4p list...c'mon now!!

[b Murphington]

Pacquiao should not be on this list

[revs1227]

great list

andrea ward is by far the best
rigo deserves #4 maybe even #2 i seen the guy fight live ,most amazing display of skill ive ever seen in the ring
