March Pound for Pound List

Here it is - my pound for pound list for the month of March:

1. Manny Pacquiao

Still can't argue much with Manny being number one. Juan Manuel Marquez made some noise this weekend but Manny is still the man. He soundly beat Oscar De La Hoya while moving up several weight divisions from only a year back. He has fairly recent wins over legends of the ring Juan Manuel Marquez, Marco Antonio Barrera and Eric Morales.

Up Next: Ricky Hatton

2. Bernard Hopkins

Bernard completed a recent destruction of Kelly Pavlik and close split decision loss to Joe Calzaghe. B-Hop has fought an unbelievable number of figters that were top 10 pound for pounders when he fought them. By comparison, Joe Calzaghe has only ever done that once in his career - when he fought Bernard Hopkins. B-Hop is now looking to Tomasz Adamek for his next challenge at cruiser weight. Wow! That would be amazing.

3. Juan Manuel Marquez

Two scintillating close fights with Manny Pacquiao, a solid victory over Joel Casamayor and now an incredibly entertaining fight with Juan Diaz that he won via TKO. He's getting really close to Manny and B-Hop.

4. Shane Mosley

Close fight with Miguel Cotto and destruction of Antonio Margarito makes him the top welterweight and puts him 4th on our list. He now needs to settle the score with Cotto.

5. Paul Williams

Still underrated but clearly one of the top fighters today. His victories over Margarito, Verno Phillips and Carlos Quintana along with his versatility across weight divisions squeeze him into the top five. He can solidify his spot with a big win against Winky Wright in what should be an interesting fight.
