RING Mag is owned by GBP and Donaire is a Top Rank boxer... Go figure...
.
Lol! Donaire bribed Ring Mag to put him at #7? That's some funny shit right there. Hehe!
A King-Size Scandal in the Ring - TIMEQuote:
Anything is possible with the Ring magazine. Money talks, maybe Donaire and Arum slipped a little money for those rankings eh?
He bribed the wrong people thats for sure, if it only got him 7th spot then hes doing something wrong ;DQuote:

Lol Mr Erik. I have no problem ranking Donaire at #30, #300, #3000, or #30,000... and infinity. I'm good with it as long as he's ahead of Darchickenyan. Get my drift?
Can you post your top 30 p4p please.Quote:

I'm not sure about that, Darchinyan has done a lot more than Donaire since they fought. Darchinyan, in addition to being a unified champion, has been on the list for 19 weeks; Donaire has been on for 7. What has he done in those 7 weeks to deserve to be ranked above Darchinyan? Because prior to that he clearly wasn't seen as good enough to be ahead of him according to those who make the list.Quote:

By your criteria he could be ranked in the top 5.Quote:

(like pac did for jmm tll everybody praised him to who he is today: the #2 p4p!)Quote:

or you can also ask people here who will win if those fights happen.(nonito vs a, vs b, vs c...) only guy who can stand a chance actually against nonito is montiel imo. we can all predict that, can't we? of course it's just a prediction but arce vs nonito? you can guess right who would win easily there, right?
Again, regardless of the reasons, Donaire does not have the resume to be included in the P4P list in my opinion. He has fought one legitimate opponent in his entire career.
Yet Doniare is voted higher than him, it makes no sense. Donaire has only fought one single world rated fighter. No other opponent has ever held a world title at any time, only one had ever fought for one prior to meeting Donaire, and they had been knocked out.
If you take Darchinyan out of his resume he's not even top 100 and that's a fact, there is not a single name on his record that stands out.
All he did was suprisingly KO a fighter who has since gone on to do great things after the Donaire loss.
It's Vic who went on to win titles at multiple weight classes, who destroyed Jorge Arce and Christian Mijares and yet for some reason despite doing nothing in the last two years (he's fought 3 nobodies) Donaire has been promoted every time Vic achieves something.
It's ridiculous, a man should get into the p4p rankings based on his own merits, not because a fighter he beat goes on to achieve p4p worthy feats over the next couple years
I agree about Williams and Dawson. They certainly belong ahead of Donaire.
Haye's resume isn't that good though.
my thoughts exactlyQuote:

Who has Nonito beaten that are better than Frogemmini, Mormeck and Maccerinelli?Quote:

At least when Haye knocked out Mormeck he had just defeated O'Neil Bell to become the unified Cruiseweight champ, only the third since Holyfield I believe.
And you can mock the likes of Enzo and Frogemmini on Haye's record but they eclipse any fighter on Nonito's other than Darchinyan, he's not even fought a single other world class fighter, the only other 'name' on his resume being Maldonado famous only for being knocked out by Vic, Montiel and Nonito.
His record apart from the Vic fight is crap, he has beaten nobody at all.
Kelly Pavliks record is far better than Nonito's with wins over Taylor twice, Miranda and Rubio all world class operators. Sure he lost to Hopkins one of the greatest fighters of the modern era, but Nonito Donaire has one defeat also to a certain Rosendo Sanchez who I'm sure we are all familiar with.
You can try and say well Pavliks defeat was recent as if that makes it more damaging but if we are going on recent form isn't that even more reason for Donaire not to be in the top 10 seeing as he does absolutely nothing in 2 years?
Even Arthur Abrahams wins over Miranda, Eastmen, Sebastion Demers, Kinglesy Ikicke is beter is a better resume imo.
Donaiare beat a decent world champ who later went on to become a very good world champ whilst Donaire himself has just stood still.
If he is p4p nunber 7 the James Buster Douglas must SURELY be in the Top 10 greatest heavyweights of all time right? How could you dispute it, after all he toppled Tyson when he was undefeated at the very height of his powers not before he had achieved them, he beat the champ, not a fighter with potential.......
Computer must be on the fritz over at the Ring. Haye I can agree with but not Dawson and Williams.
i was thinking the same thing.Quote:
