    Jean Pascal..
    Denis Lebedev (debatable imo)
    I also think that the current Mikkel Kessler is a b+ fighter, where in his prime he was an A.. Froch is also another fighter who may fall into the b+ category..

    I like Tony Dirrel, David Rodriguez, Chauncey Welliver, Bryant Jennings, Seth Mitchell, Adonis Stevenson, Derick Chisora, and about a dozen or so other Blevel HWs.

    Obvious SMW and HW are my favorite divisions.:deal

    He's a contender. Top 10 to both K2 and the paper champ Potvetkin. He's cruised through the C level and dominated them. He's Belvel today, and will likely compete for yrs as a titlist or perrenial contender depending on how he's matched.:deal

    Golota for me. Two beat downs on Bowe, retired the guy after #2, but lost both on low blows. Subsequent career never hit the heights. Solid B class.

    A lot of these guys being mentioned were A level at least for part of their career. It's hard to say a legit champion is B level no matter what the era.

    My choice is Katsidis. Also Matt Vanda and Augustus.

    Shot Tsyzu and was allowed to fight the filthy fight by an incompetent,biased ref.Light punching Collazo was B level and had Hatton on the ropes at the end of the fight.Hatton got a gift there.And Urango,lol?

    Just a couple of weeks for you to see the light....after May 26th, you will never doubt that A) Bute is an A level boxer and B) Froch is limited and is a B level boxer.

    You gave Ali's name twice already in this thread. I take it you don't like Ali because he is the Greatest of All Time. Maybe I should have ignored you too.

    Why Kelly?

    Never mind, he did fight some good opposition and won a title, but his career was like a match on fire.
