World Boxing News reveals what the Pound for Pound Top 50 Boxers looked like in March 2011. Manny Pacquiao was at the helm at the time.
The ‘Pacman’ ruled supreme on the back of a superb win over Antonio Margarito in 2010. With the triumph, Pacquiao became an eight-weight, bonafide seven-weight world title-holder.
Due to lack of activity, Floyd Mayweather was second, with Nonito Donaire riding high in third.
Juan Manuel Marquez took the fourth spot, while Wladimir Klitschko sat fifth as the unified heavyweight champion.
Pongsaklek Wonjongkam, Miguel Cotto, Juan Manuel Lopez, Chris John, and Timothy Bradley made up the top ten.
