    Well the guy is young and just starting and struggling in his eallier fights is not an indication that he has no chance to improve.

    . . . and that's why I posted "dangerous". Take note he fights at 140 too.

    Doubt it. Prescott is one of the most overrated fighters out there, period. Frankly, he's not unknown either. He's been on US TV twice (struggling both times against mediocre competition), plus he has the Khan win. I guess he has some tools to work with between his length and his power, but he's just not a good boxer.

    The guys ranked 9, 11, 12, 13, 14 and 15, however, I have no idea who those guys are. I have even less of an idea how a guy who's 9-2 and whose best win comes over a guy who was 5-2-1 can be ranked #14.

    Thaxton's lost 2 of his last three fights, why should he be in one of the top spots?? Makes no sense
