    The only one I would dispute is Vasquez being in the top 10.

    I know he stepped up to feather in his last fight, and won, but it was aganist a career bantamweight who had lost most of his recent fights (several in a row I think) by stoppage...... and he looked **** in doing so.

    Other than that, top marks.

    reason i put him back in is because msot people voted him top 5 in there P4P but we took him out due to inactivity. i agree with you Beeston so if a few more come on board i will change

    Yep I believe Vasquez and Marquez haven't done enough in the past 12 months to justify it. B-Hop would just about scrape in due to pavlik not being as long ago as Rafa-Izzy 3.

    How long does a fighter have to be inactive to be pulled from the rankings?

    I am just talking about Hatton on this. Even if he does come back it will be mid-late next year.

    Great to see the list looking good.

    Also, I feel Hasegawa should be above JuanMa and Donaire. I'm too late to make a difference but oh, well :good

    Thanks.

    It would be an idea to save the list how it is before fights happen and it changes and then re post it next christmas and we can check where people are then in comparison.

    How is Chad Dawson LHW Champ but B-hop higher P4P?

    NB - Didn't get involved first time around so apologies if this has been covered previously.

    Dawson has a belt at Light-Heavy, as does Pascal do you want him to be ranked above Hop too??!?!?

    Who mentioned belts :lol:

    You've got Chad as 'ESB Champ' implying he is the best LH but then you've got B-Hop miles ahead P4P.

    Divisional rankings do not affect P4P. Number 1,2,4,6,7 and 8 are not number 1 in there Division but are not P4P champion.

    Dawson has faced better Light Heavyweights in the past 2 years, but Hopkins has faced better fighters (Pavlik, Calzaghe Loss SD)

    i have questions.

    who compiles these ratings ?..like is it anyone and everyone on esb voting and one guy compiles it ?
    what makes someone champion of their division ?..like, why is esb welter champ vacant?
