Garcia hasn't done shit to earn a nomination for me & Margarito will only get credit from me when he beats an opponent who might at least make me think some of what he used to do was sans plaster.

Greene gets in on promise, I think he has what it takes to be a threat here.

Lara has more than earnt the spot with wins over Brewster & Perez.

I'm not all over Porter like many are because he's a Manny sparring partner, but Pinzon is at least a slight step up & was involved in what might have been FOTY last year if anyone had seen it with Torres.

Ishida hasn't done enough to be in the pool for me regardless of being a mandatory.

Stieglitz (#7) won a UD over Eduard Gutknecht - Boxer
Eduard is a pool member, should we keep him in the pool or drop him to unranked status?

Here's an account of the fight... Boxing: Stieglitz retains WBO title

After a clear decision loss to our new title holder Sergio Martinez how far should Pavlik drop?

[ICB]

After a clear decision loss to our new title holder Sergio Martinez how far should Pavlik drop?

I think he keeps his spot personally, i can't imagine him being below fighters like Sturm, Slyvester.

[killersheep]

I say drop him two spots, he was soundly beaten, Sturm and Sylvester have both been on better win streaks. Sturm has not been as active because of managerial issues, if he doesn't fight before July he may drop to the pool.
The other issue is that Pavlik is not likely to fight at 160 for his next fight.

[Nameless]

2 spots seem quite fair in the circumstances.

[markb018]

I have Pavlik staying at #1, what about Pwill's stock, does that rise because he "beat" martinez??

[Spicoli]

I think Lopez beats Pavlik right now.He drops for me.Man what happened to this division??

[rowza]

Dosnt he stay #1 as there was Rematch clause in the fight?

[killersheep]

I think Lopez beats Pavlik right now.He drops for me.Man what happened to this division??

blame zee Germans (and by that I mean German based fighters). Abraham moved up, Sturm had manager problems, Sylvester and Zbik are taking it easy.

[The Fightfan]

I think Pavlik sticks at #1. HE was beaten but we haven't heard of anything from Sturm or Sylvester.
