    I don't see how anyone can have Marquez in the top 5

    I really like that u have P.Will and Vic on there. I would trade Marg with Rafa. Also, I would rate P.Will higher bcuz he did beat AM and reversed his loss with Quintana by KO1 stopped an ok MW and stopped a rugged 154 title holder. That's P4P material. I would replace Ricky with P.Will. I might even trade spots with Cotto and Williams. Something like...

    5. Rafa Marquez
    6. Antonio MArgarito
    7. Paul Williams
    8. Miguel Cotto
    9. Nate Campbell
    10. The Raging Bull

    Paulie's match with Herman was questionable and so was Ricky's with Juan Lazcano.

    I will admit...I'm a big fan of Cotto...so that was personal bias...

    BUT!

    I don't understand why he should fall so sharply...He was dangling around top 3 for awhile...he was 5 or 6...then falls around 8 or 9 in a competitive brawl and FOTY while Hopkins loses 3 and wins ONE over Kelly and comes back so strong?? :bart...but hey...maybe im just bitter

    I can live with that list...but cmon man...Ricky deserves to be somewhere on that list...not sure if Campbell should have that spot...

    Many fighter's have questionable fights...

    Cotto has the Shane fight
    P.Will has that loss
    Margo has that Clottey fight
    Pac has JMM
    Vic has his loss
    B-Hop has his LOSSES

    Always questionable...but a W is a W...

    Nate dominated Juan Diaz. Ricky struggled with Juan Lazcano and some say Hatton should of lost. Ricky H. defeated Paulie whom many had him losing to Herman N. Yeah, about BHOP, I should of placed him lower. I guess his Golden Boy affiliation boosted his ranking.

    I think it's just the fact that he's ****in' old as **** and still kickin' ass and taking names...SERIOUSLY taking names

    He should change his name from Executioner to ****in' Soul Stealer! :smoke

    Nate's a dangerous contender and a great fight for anyone...but I still think he needs something a bit more significant

    who says ricky should have lost? it was as one-sided as you can imagine, with hatton getting rocked once as i remember. hardly controversial.

    u got a point there Mr. Ricky fan. However, PAulie didn't look great vs Herman. Herman looked ok vs a shot Castillo. I'm judging opposition.
