    Kessler, Cotto, and Margarito shouldn't be on that list.

    Kessler was the destroyer of worlds. Conqueror of men. If Erik the Red and William the Conqueror had a love child, thy name be Mikkel Kessler.

    Mikkel Kessler had folded Calzaghe to the body, had turned back the Old One

    Yet he got dominated by a prospect who leaps in with his head down. :rofl




    Cotto never beat a reigning titlest until he beat a one legged Yuri Foreman.

    Margarito had like 6 losses before he was beat down by an old Mosley


    Neither deserved their acclaim.

    From the list i would say Devon.. Although he is very talented, he seems to have gone backwards..

    Berto is up there, and Dawson As is Chavez Jr. I think another who might be exposed as the biggest fraud is Bradley.

    Same here man...



    Ricky Hatton and Jeff Lacy... Hatton was deemed on Mayweather's lebel at one point in time which is why I say him....

    But off that list it has to be alexander...

    Who voted Miguel Cotto??? In fact, why is he on the list?

    He has the attributes that scream "box", i.e. height and that crazy reach. Too bad he always thinks "brawl".
