    Can't see how Khan can be rated based on 1 win over shot Collazo, certainly not above Bundu anyway..

    Maidana should not be ahead of Alexander OR Porter.

    I agree. Maidana has not done enough since being schooled by Alexander to move above him. Yes he beat a complete hype job Broner (who himself had one very dodgy win at 147) and serviceable gatekeepers Soto-Karass and Lopez (but who doesn't beat those guys) and a loss to Mayweather.

    I think most of the people who argue for his high ranking are Mayweather promoters...

    I agree. You can't even argue above 5 though. And it's still a **** poor argument at that point. People think since he came close to beating Floyd he is great. He has gotten better under garcia but I still think we need to see another win besides Broner before his rating changes.

    Interesting....no Maidana. I do think there is a better argument though that he doesn't belong in the top 10 more so than he does belong in the top 5.

    Transnational Boxing Rankings:

    1. Mayweather
    2. Pacquiao
    3. Bradley
    4. Marquez
    5. Maidana
    6. Brook
    7. Thurman
    8. Porter
    9. Alexander
    10. Khan

    My personal only change would be swapping Guerrero in at 10, Bundu at 11, and slide Khan to 12. People overrating the Collazo win, in my opinion.

    Absolutely nobody with a relevant opinion agrees with you.

    Looks like...

    1. Mayweater
    2. Pacquiao
    3. Timbo
    4. Mark
    5. Kell

    …Is pretty incontrovertible

    His stoppages over Soto Karass and Josesito would be better than the second and third best WW victories of a lot of the guys named in this thread.
