Is Nonito Donaire really the 6th best boxer in the world??

[hfahrenheit]

Just was looking at the Pound For Pound rankings on The Ring & saw that Donaire is #6

The Ring Pound For Pound Ratings

I mean seriously, he's a good fighter, but he's only got one worthy name on there in Darchinyan & even he isn't that good.

The problem I have with this is however you look at it, there are plenty of guys who should be above him.

If it's on resume, Cotto, Dawson, Williams, Chris John, both Klitschkos & Arthur Abraham all trump him.

If it's on talent Hasegawa, Cotto, Dawson, Williams, Wlad Klitschko, Abraham, Kessler, Calderon, Caballero & Roman Gonzalez are all better.

Can you really have this high because people thought Vic was p4p at one point & he beat him?

I mean he's good, probably Top 20, but no way is he the 6th best fighter in the world.

No, and Paul Williams shouldn't be in the top ten either.

How is Williams not p4p 10?

He's a two weight, three time world champ and has wins over two former p4p top 10 guys in Margarito and Winky (actually Winky was top 5 not too long ago).

How many fighters have done more than him? Dawson should be top 10 too.

Yep, Winky sure was at the top of the boxing World when he fought Williams...

And Margarito, that fight happened two and half years ago... why shouldn't that be include in a current p4p ranking, it's a perfect barometer for how a fighter's doing CURRENTLY.

And Freddie Roach is right too--Amir Khan is the 10 best fighter in the World.

No sense in arguing any of that.
