    dang, my bad. When i seen people listing margarito i figured id list kirkland.... but true enough hes out for a year and a half or so, so if i had to replace him id go with......


    maybe Adamek?

    damnit im not sure.... Adamek seems to always come to fight and seems to entertain, ill put him until i think of someone else.

    i want to add Gamboa, but its hard to feel excited with the level of opposition hes fighting in relation to his ability....

    Ricardo Torres i often find exciting.... well im a sucker i find just about every fight exciting but im sure were are talking about who majority find exciting.

    Hell i find Hopkins exciting, thats a bit sad.

    If I have to replace Margarito because he's been out for a year . . . I'm putting in Mayorga.

    Talk of excitement . . . the guy always keeps me in the edge of my seat . . . win or lose. :good

    thats a great choice
    I would put Mayorga in my top 10 no questions asked but i dont consider him an active fighter anymore.... which is sad as hes one of my favorite fighters :-(

    There are actually more names than I anticipated, which is good!
    so I had to re-think things.

    I don't think anyone is really wrong, although it may be difficult to argue for Nikolai Valuev or John Ruiz.

    :D

    I just helped have the "new" and "final" list posted. If anyone wants to check it out, it's on my homepage.
