  2. This for me is the hardest division to rank and it's basically personal preference

    I mean the likes of pacquiao ahead of Bradley I get because general consensus is pacman won but then going by that method of thinking shouldn't Ortiz be ahead of Lopez as he was ahead on all 3 cards before retiring injured
    Then you have to have Vargas ahead of Lopez because he has beat him although narrowly

    I think Lopez and Vargas are a level below Ortiz and berto at least at the moment
     
  3. The top 5 is the strongest in any division

    Good list. I'd have Thurman ahead of Brook though on the basis of the Zaveck win

    Ortiz could have continued.

    This. Also his jaw was broken by a punch from Lopez.

    Personally I think Paulie is a bit high especially since I thought Cano beat him last time out.
