    I notice Laszlo Papp was slipped in there.

    Pavlik has one creditable stoppage win over Taylor, in this months Ring he himself says the Lockett one was nothing.
    Only Benn made my list so why you include Valdez,Briscoe and Satterfield I don't know,but I'll answer you shortly.
    `Here you go.
    Benn stopped
    Sims
    Barkley
    Dewitt

    Briscoe stopped
    Hart
    Mundine
    Douglas
    Guitierrez
    Manning
    Lester
    Benton
    Gonzalez
    Rondon

    Valdez stopped
    Tonna
    Cohen
    Briscoe *Only man to stop him


    Satterfield does not qualify as a middleweight.

    Well to be fair I think a 230% effort post is worthy of something

    In this case, rejection out of hand.

    Yes he did stop Miranda and it was remiss of me not to have mentioned it, especially as Pavlik talks about the fight in this months Ring.
    I don't accept Briscoe is worse than Taylor,but it's academic because Briscoe isn't in my ten!

    I know he weighed 164lbs against LaMotta can't seemed to find anything of him weighing under 160lbs, thought I read it somewhere.

    McClellan was an insanely heavy puncher for 160lb.

    A young Benn was barbaric - not even remotely accurate shots would take guys off their feet or cause their feet to go.

    And Julian had the speed, ACCURACY and timing to cause one-shot layouts even above his natural weight.

    Why do you flat out refuse to accept facts when they are presented to you? Is it some kind of warped pride?

    Benn at middle . In his wild pre Watson days that's what he did kill or be killed.
