    P4P originally was about who would win H2H but now and for a while it also takes in what you've done recently aswell as skills.

    I.e for me Wards not P4P #2 because he's done nothing impressive since 2011.

    To answer the question, I probably wouldn't pick anyone out of the remaining 7 to beat Rigondeaux.

    Perhaps Bradley.

    Doing "who would win of they were the same size" is a hard argument in general because they'd be a different fighter at a completely different weight.

        Explain to me first how does Ward & Mayweather beat him convincingly? He's the best defensive fighter in the sport.

          Wlad sits on Rigo's head and the ref dont do **** about it and he dies lol. The rest dont have a chance in fking hell not in their present form. Marquez showed he will loose the chess-match and try to attack and look pathetic against a counter puncher If it was Prime Pacquiao or Marquez that's some else that would be fun but then again Rigondeaux is past his prime days as well so it is fair.

              Pacquaio in my opinion would not attempt to 'solve' Rigo, he would overwhelm him with angles, speed and a barrage of punches. Rigo is not Marquez or even close. Rigo is a great boxer, so he may make it difficult, but at 122 or around that weight Pacquaio was a relentless machine, Rigo would not be able to keep him honest for long.

              Pacquaio has beaten plenty of great boxers and counter punchers over the years, can we please stop acting Marquez = every counter puncher.
              That's true Rigo isn't Marquez, he's better.

                So when in Clottey's career has he ever averaged 100 punches a round??

                  Recently it's obvious (at least to me), that pfp was basically used to promote an eventual Floyd/Pacman clash that never happened. The system's been flawed since it was used for that and now they're just throwing a bunch of names around up there.

                  Because as for what it originally meant, I do not see a way that there could possibly be 8 fighters alive that one could say without question beats Rigo.

                    No one really,,, the closest would be tim and manny

                    If rigo keeps winning vs top guys, he will be on the floyd, ward level, but right now i think he is clearly #3 and tim and manny are right after him...


                    I think the only guy around riog's weight that could cause him problems would be chemito moreno, because moreno is a very good boxer from the outside, and wont give rigo many chances to counter

                      Lineal lightweight champ isn't impressive to you?
