    World Class is often confused with Elite.

    Hey listen here I am a fighter and I've got nothing but respect for every other one but I know the game well enough to realise that there are levels in the fight game and that's not disrespectful that's a fact. So watch who your getting smart with before you even think about my thread question

    I like the above list but would put Pound For pound both current and all time on a side list of the hypothetical and not part of a lininial ranking of fighters.

    All Time Great
    Hall of Fame
    World Champion
    #1 Ranked Contender
    Current Top 10
    Gatekeeper(Tough guys, former champs, or guys who never quite made top 10)
    Mid level pro (Prospects)
    Bums (100% of ESB Forum members ;) )

    i didn't call u a bum, but if the shoe fits....

    i happen to be a former fighter who is now a coach. i have nothing but the utmost respect for anyone who has the balls to step foot in the ring and compete. sure there are different levels....but none are bums imo. the only bums are the ones who would even consider calling someone who steps in the ring for our entertainment a bum. carry on.

    Ok fair enough maybe bum wasn't the right choice of words, but you need to realise I am talking solely about rating talent not balls, I ain't questioning fighters balls that's not the question I was asking
