    1)Ricky Hatton-his being in the top 10 p4p is a joke. He has never beaten one elite fighter in their prime. He cheated his way to a victory over Kosta who was aging and mostly inactive for three years. His only attempt to beat a great fighter in their prime ended with him being KO'd by a ring post. He somehow is being hyped by the Brits again for beating feather-fisted Paulie the Drag Queen.

    2)Pac-Man-the Pac-Man hype express is so out of hand he his bound to fall hard except he won't fight one young elite fighter who is not past their prime which his arch-rival JMM just did. Barely beating JMM and fighting two human punching bags in one year does not make you p4p #1 or great. He has only fought one style of top tier fighter (all were past their prime).

    3)Carl Froch-Maybe he should change his name to Carl Fraud. His biggest accomplishment is running his mouth and being obsessed with Calzaghe. He has not beaten one world-class fighter and yet has a belt. He will be back to fighting journeymen in the UK when Jermaine Taylor is done with him.

    4)Arthur Abraham-Once again who has he fought other than Euro-bums? Oh, he fought Miranda, got his jaw broke and took 2 fights to KO him while Pavlik destroyed Miranda in half-a-fight. Pavlik will beat his turtle shell down with ease, especially considering the way AA sits on the ropes. The only thing he is King of is fighting nobodies.

    5)Amir Khan-never has beaten anyone of significance and was KO'd by a C glass fighter who made him dance off a jab. He has a glass jaw and a glass heart. A Mere Con. Will be no surprise if a shot Barrera KO's him.

    6)David Haye-David Hype is much like Carl Froch in that he has hardly proved a thing but never shuts up. His china chin is as bad as A Mere Con's. He has been knocked down and knocked out by glancing blows. He's holding out as long as possible to keep building the hype but his china chin will be shattered if he ever actually gets the courage to fight Wladimir or Vitali.

    7)Alfredo Angulo-he is a bad copy of Margarito. Very one-dimensional and not as good of a chin. El Perro is more like a Shitzu than a Bulldog or Pittbull. Kirkland would destroy him within 2 rounds. He is too easy to hit. Has no defence or skills to speak of other than decent power.

    8)Kendall Holt-What is there too say. His only claim to fame is a fight he won by a head-butt, otherwise he would have been stopped in the first round. Bradley will make him look foolish.

    9) Chad Dawson-dropped by one dimensional Adamek and then fought two senior citizens, barely beating one of them. A questionable chin.

    10) Adamek-Very one dimensional. Has never beaten anyone that was very good. Cunningham and Banks are average at best and Cunningham almost beat him, even after getting dropped various times. The most Robotic fighter in the world.

    I would add Edison Miranda to that list. Every time he has stepped up his Glass Jaw was shattered.

    he fought Katsidis, a young, aggressive and strong fighter and also Julio Diaz. He fought lavka sim not too far back. He mostly fights at least good B level and low A level fighters.

    What has Miranda ever done? He was hyped to the moon and has been brutally KOed in his 2 biggest fights. The guy is an average fighter.

    I have to agree with you here. Miranda has done nothing but talk trash and never applied ANYTHING he said. He tries so hard to promote his fights by disrespecting others yet when the fight happens and he's all over the canvas like a piece of trash, he gets up and creates these hilarious and trash excuses in hope of keeping a few "loyals" in touch.

    Floyd Mayweather. And yes he is still in boxing until a few years go by. My guess is he is going to come out of retirement and fight JMM soon.
