How is Donaire ahead of Williams, Haye, Dawson etc?

[Kev]

I'm not sure Lopez has done as much and he may be my favorite fighter.

Not sure about Haye either. Unified sounds great but has he beaten that much better fighters than Donaire? Not sure and I don't think he's as good a fighter.

Dawson, yes, and probably Williams too.

Who has Donaire beaten though aside from Vic?

He's never fought a single other opponent who has ever won a world title so his opposition Darchinyan aside is clearly inferior to everybody else probably in the top 20 p4p as everybody else has at least fought and beat former champs as well as one or two current champs.

And Darchinyan has done most of the great things in his career after the Donaire loss, so Donaire didn't defeat a Mijares, Arce two division world champ.

Juan Manuel Lopez destroyed Ponce De Leon and battered Penalosa which is probably already on a par with Donaire, and I wouldn't put Lopez in the top 15 yet.
