    Its simply goes like this.

    1. Froch
    2. Khan
    3. Haye
    4. Burns

    everyonne with a brain agrees with this

    5. Cleverly
    6. Munroe

    most go with that

    Then any off

    Ola Alafoabi, Brian Magee, Matthew Macklin, Ryan Rhodes, Kell Brook, Paul McCloskey, John Murray, Stephen Foster Jnr, Jason Booth, Jamie McDonnell.

    That seals of the Top 16.

    Then you can have DeGale. No way can he be above anyone on that list. You cant tank in potential.

    DeGale is in the pool alongside Derek Chisora, Danny McIntosh, Darren Barker, Craig Watson, Matthew Hatton, Ajose Olusegun, Kevin Mitchell, Gavin Rees, Stephen Smith, John Simpson, Lee Haskins.

    Then you have a lower pool off

    Tony Bellew, George Groves, Martin Murray, Sam Webbe, Ashley Theophane, Anthony Crolla, Gary Buckland, Anthony Crolla, Jamie Arthur, Stuart Hall, Shinny Bayaar.

    is p4p based purely on the above?achievment wins performance are a big factor yes .but ask yourself a question based on a bit of common sense.could degale beat any of the top 10 and the answer for me is yes!

    theres no common sense in having DeGale top 15. He has 1 win, which was dominant over a domestic level fighter. We know Smith is a domestic level fighter because his previous 2 domestic fights were struggles.

    Thats not what rankings are based on. Has to be done on actual fact and that means ahcievment, wins and performance.

    Could DeGale beat some of the top 10, yes, has he done it....No. If you go by that you would also have Frampton, Quigg etc in there.

    If you go by that rule DeGale and Gavin would be P4P top 10 in the world.

    I don't necessarily agree with Burns being automatically number 4 in the rankings. Yes, he has a good win and a 'world' title (in what most people think is a baron division), but is his record/performances/potential better than, for example, Cleverly? In my opinion, I don't think so.

    I didn't start the thread.

    When it comes to rankings I take it seriously. They have to be based on Performace, Wins and Achievment before anything else.

    A fighter potential is purley based on opinion until he actually fights someone at a higher level, you cannot rank him above those fighters that have won and competed at that level. As James DeGale says boxing is all about levels.

    i think Burns and Cleverly are very close. Certainly if Cleverly beats Braehmer he goes 4th.
