    Please let me know your thoughts. Middleweight is quite a difficult one to rank. I have raised Barker into the top 10. Does the loss to Martinez mean more than what others have done?

    Personally, I think Barker is a bit too highly ranked at 7. I'd have Proksa & probably N'dam N'jikam ahead of him. The Spada win was good and he was decent vs Martinez but them two performances don't quite put him ahead of them 2 for me. I agree about him just ahead of Lee so 9 for me would be a fair ranking.

    Some other changes I'd consider making;

    Helenius ahead of Chambers possibly Arreola too at Heavyweight.
    Wlodarcysk ahead of Ross at Cruiserweight; he has more wins of note.
    I personally have Khan now ahead of Bradley as no.1 at LWW.
    Barros ahead of Ponce at FW.

    And I know Fernando Montiel and Giovani Segura are new in their divisions but both are too lowly ranked IMO, especially Montiel. Maybe both could go up 1 or 2 places.

    Also JMM at light welterweight? I'm guessing he will be moved to welterweight after Pacquiao?

    JFT have changed your fitrst few suggestions.

    Segura and Montiel stay where they are due to good fighters being ahead of them. All the guys above them have close losses at world level

    Marquez will go up after MP win or lose.

    Fair enough I can see your logic. Especially looking again at Segura, his position is probably about right at the moment. Similar with Montiel though I'd personally have him ahead of Poonsowat at the min and maybe Lee too due to his previous success at bantam + a good stoppage win vs Cermeno. Suppose i'm just splitting hairs though :lol:

    You need to remove Chris Henry. I'm not sure what he was doing at 7 anyway.

    Mabuza at 11 is very high seeing as he just lost to Van Heerden for the IBO title.

    Moreno ahead of Darchinyan?

    Oh and Raul Garcia lost his title(unsurprisingly) to an unheralded(surprisingly) fighter, so he'd probably drop quite a few places.

    Barker wins three rounds and gets knocked out and he gets a significant rise in the rankings. Utterly bizarre.

    Similar to Macklin in a way. Granted Macklin performed better, and hence received a higher ranking.
