    Random observation:

    If you have Calzaghe in your top 6, consistency would have Mayweather no lower than 2.

    Actually i think Mayweather will beat Pac if they ever fight, but as of right now i have to rank Pac at top, his jumps from fly to Junior middle is what does it for me. I almost favored May over Jones but ill wait on that lot of these were close like Oscar and Hopkins, or Tito,Lewis,Calzaghe.

    Very good list, its a funny thing though when you look at a whole career as Cotto is consistantly below Mosley on this list.

    If Mosley goes the way of say Hatton vs Manny then I think he will be a lot lower.

    1 Pacquaio- No one will ever get a belt south of 122 and own 147 like he did.

    2 Mayweather- His skills can match anybody in any era.

    3 Rjj- I tought his move from 160 to winning a heavyweight belt is something special

    4 Hopkins- Longevity keeps him high on my list.

    5 Lewis- Fought and was on top when heavyweight was good.

    6 Hoya- Has the better resume then the rest, even if he didn't win all the time.

    7 Mosley-Fought everybody and tried to avenge his losses. what a fighter is suppose to be

    8 JMM- Solid skills. Great resume. Could even go higher if he beats some 140 guys

    9 Tito- Still beat a prime Hoya and vargas. Hoya was disputed, but at least he had him in his prime.

    10 Cotto- Good resume. Has a lot of solid wins on his resume.

    11 Calzaghe- Best win was Hopkins and kessler. Shame his division is young. Didn't have the name guys for him thrive. Him not fighter dawson and other young guys like Pavlic which he would have won easy at the time hurt him.

    12 Hatton- Good figher only lost was from two p4p. They way he lost to the pacmonster really hurt him from my list.

    I mostly agree with this, but with these changes:

    1 Pacquaio- No one will ever get a belt south of 122 and own 147 like he did.

    2 Hoya- Has the better resume then the rest, even if he didn't win all the time.

    3 Rjj- I tought his move from 160 to winning a heavyweight belt is something special

    4 Hopkins- Longevity keeps him high on my list.

    5 JMM- Solid skills. Great resume. Could even go higher if he beats some 140 guys

    6 Lewis- Avenged all of his losses, unified champ, but was sometimes lazy and is generally overrated.

    7 Mosley-Fought everybody and tried to avenge his losses. what a fighter is suppose to be

    8 Tyson - Youngest HW Champ in history, last great face of the sport recognized internationally, last supremely dominant HW since Ali.

    9 Cotto- Good resume. Has a lot of solid wins on his resume.

    10 Calzaghe- Best win was Hopkins and kessler. Shame his division is young. Should have fought abroad sooner, against better opposition.

    11 Mayweather- His skills can match anybody in any era, but he's a chicken **** and didn't live up to his full potential.

    12 Hatton- Good figher only lost was from two p4p. They way he lost to the pacmonster really hurt him from my list.
