    Glazkov, Perez should be higher
    arreola, solis, mansour, cunningham should be lower

    Szpilka & Dinu - should be in there

    Mansour at 13 is way too high! what the eff has he done?

    I've got Audley Harrison as #2 but that's a pretty good list.

    Thanks for the comments.

    Dinu is up there in terms of talent but he's been too inactive lately (I'm only ranking fighters who have fought within the past year) and he's only 9-0. Szpilka seems like a hype job who barely gets past journeymen--if he upsets Jennings then I'll eat cake on this one. Jennings is also a hype job but he seems much better than Spilzka.

    Mansour has beaten some respectable opponents in the past few years (Harris, Gavern, Guinn, Price).

    I see an argument for ranking Perez as high as #10 but Helenius and Solis deserve respect for their accomplishments--even if their careers seem to be on the downswing. Glazkov at #17 is fairly generous imo--can't rate him any higher than that until he defeats a big name.

    Helenius is very far from the level he had two years ago. Sauerland let him go !!!
