Best list I have seen on this thread, would swap 1 and 2, 6,7 and possibly 8,9 around though Difficult one
Aside from moving burns up I agree. Nothing in it for those couples. Burns for me hasn't looked good for a long while now. Crawford will be telling.
This is how far out you are mate. Between Murray, Groves, McDonnell, Quigg and Hall they've had 12 world title fights against varied opposition winning 7, losing 5 and drawing 1. Yet Burns has had 9 world title fight winning 8 drawing 1 and you have all bar McDonnell ahead of him, get a grip pal
1 - Froch 2 - Groves 3 - Burns 4 - Frampton 5 - Brook 6 - Murray 7 - Quigg 8 - Fury 9 - McDonnell 10 - Chisora
Crawford will be a very tough fight for burns imo, but atm I would give him the edge over fury merely because of the caliber of opposition fought, plus I was not very impressed with him against cunningham, which was the last time I saw him fight. Burns at the very least showed courage and determination.
Froch Burns Groves Frampton Khan Murray Quigg Brook Fury Mcdonnell Assuming Barker doesn't make a return and also, it's up and arms as to what is happening with Haye.
To be fair Billy, Boo does not have Hall in his list at all and as you said he ranks Burns above Mcdonnell. So murray with his loss against Sergio Martinez and draw against Felix sturm in world title fights, arguments can be made that he was perhaps unlucky in both fights, and the fighters he lost to are both world class. For whatever reason he has not been quite good enough to win a world title though but deserves his place on this list, despite looking awful in his last fight. Groves, performance of his life, bs stoppage against froch, has proved he is an elite smw, top 3 in the division for sure. Quigg, a draw and a win for the reg title, promising, exciting but not battle hardened imo, we will see more when he really has to dig deep. So 2 losses out of the fighters you mentioned against Ring magazine P4P top ten fighters. You may disagree, but I do not think it is outrageous for any of them to be above Burns p4p, in hindsight would have Burns up to 7th infront of Quigg and fury though
With the fullest of respect to all these fighters you don't get into p4p if you don't win consistently and the only two that have done that at the top level is Froch and Burns
Learn how to speak english. *You're I'm basing this list on who I think is P4P the best fighter right now. Not on what they have achieved. I suppose you think Cleverly should be near the top too for all his "world title fights". Some people are protected and win against questionable opposition. Using the Burns example, he has looked ordinary in fights he was expected to win quite easily. Were you a judge in the Beltran fight? You should be banned for your embarrassing bigotry. I'm white and British, not that it has anything to do with that.
This is how SKY has it for anyone interested: 1 Froch 2 Murray 3 Quigg 4 Burns 5 Khan 6 Groves 7 McDonnell 8 Brook 9 Fury 10 Frampton
