    So it's 2-1 in favour of Caballero with LHL scoring it a draw. How many more are needed? Also, who else thinks Malignaggi should replace Witter/Holt?

    Also Calderon shouldn't be the champ yet i think. I think Holt won't be fighting for a while was he not in some money laundering thing?

    Forgot all about that. That's why James Kirkland isn't ranked at 154 as well. Kos, can we remove him then? That's a good enough reason.

    Once Berto faces a top 10 guy without the help of his own judges he will be exposed, KTFO, or both :lol:

    Clottey has done way more, took Margarito 12, beat Judah, and all but beat Cotto before going to sleep in the last two sessions.

    On Caballero and Lopez.....

    I like the look of Lopez but he needs to fight a 122lb'er that can take a punch. Penalosa is a tough dude but a career bantam, and old.... don't talk about DPDL and Medina :patsch

    I would have Lopez ahead of Cabalerro. Really hope they fight later this year. Cabalerro has the best win over Molitor but Lopez has 5 or 6 good wins now and in devastating fashion.

    I think Clottey should be ahead of Berto for now. Obviously if Berto beats Mosley which I am tipping him to do, he will go top 3 at welter. I can see them fighting each other next year.

    Calderon should deffinatley be number 1. He beat Cazares who was number 2 at the time.

    So we've all agreed Clottey should definately be above Berto? As I said above, I think it's a no-brainer as Clottey has much better credentials and only losses have came against the best. Anyway, I believe rooq is right about Bradley- I was the only person against it and the overwhelming majority of people are for it so it should be changed.

    I still think Caballero's CV is more impressive than Lopez's and I also think Holt should be dropped and Malignaggi should be in the list^^^^^. Holt 10th and Malignaggi 9th anyone?

    Holt can be dropped when he gets sent down.

    Changed my mind about hatton. remember mallignaggi was top 2 lww before hatton fight.

    This is what I've been saying all along, Rob. Many people picked Malignaggi to outslick Hatton as well and he comlpetely dominated the fight. If everyone still wants Bradley ahead then I have to deal with it.

    Ok it has been officially announded that Paul Williams will challenge Kelly Pavlik for his 160lbs RING, WBC and WBO Titles.

    Seeing as Williams last fight was agaisnt ranked Middleweight Winky Wright at Middleweight, Williams should be put into the middleweight rankings behind Sturm.

    Not until he fights him. Urango wouldn't get moved into the ESB rankings soon as the Berto fight was announced
