    Would only change your WW pick by Shane Mosley other than that your list is spot on.

    Didn't have to think much about this one:good

    But I would have loved to put Cotto in at Welter, Froch in at SM and hopefully in a year or so I will be able to.

    Maybe as a prospect but he's totally unproven. I've seen him fight a couple of shuffling heavybags on youtube, and of course that clip of him getting put down by a no mark, what makes you think he's the best?

    He's the fastest, the biggest, and I believe he has alot of power in his punches.

    He took Hanshaw to the cleaners in 5 rounds. THe same Hanshaw that was down by 2 points heading into the championship rounds against Roy Jones Jr not to long ago.


    And its not like there are any real elite fighters in the SM division. There are no Calzaghe's, Toney's, Jones, Hopkins, Eubanks ect. Kessler is seen as the best SMW for crying out loud.

    In terms of talent, Dirrell is the best. If he puts it all together watch out. I believe we have a star in the making.

    I didn't include Hopkins as I don't know if he has any intention of fighting at light heavu again or will he take a tune up at Cruiser whilst he awaits Jones Jr.
