    Based on combo of longevity, quality of wins, record against other listed fighters, and subjective ability in H2H match-ups. Negatives for gift decisions such as Ottke-Reid and Eubank-Schommer.

    1) Calzaghe
    2) Ward
    3) Jones
    4) Kessler
    5) Benn
    6) Eubank
    7) Froch
    8) Ottke
    9) Collins
    10) Park

    What?
    Froch lost to Kessler coming off a loss. How is that a better win than Kessler even?
    So Wards best win is Kessler who when past best, suffering double vision and rusty is his best win, yet Calzaghe beats the undefeated prime version and you put Ward above? :lol::patsch.
    How is Froch such a better win than say 2 time WBA champ Mitchell who beat Liles a better SMW than any Froch beat and looked to have beaten Ottke to many.
    How is Froch better than Reid?
    Not to forget that Calzaghe that you have at #2 beat undefeated Kessler, undefeated Lacy, undefeated Veit, 3 fighters who held SMW titles and Calzaghe has a better win than Froch and Kessler in Eubank another SMW champ, Calzaghe also beat SMW champs in Brewer, Mitchell, Reid, Woodhall to go with the others. Cant see how you could have Ward above that when his best win is Kessler who Calzaghe had already beaten and Froch who doesnt compare to a few of the names on Calzaghes resume and then Calzaghe has even more names

    that about tight, though RJJ should be at the top, bit of an oversight there! If you mean considering ability too.

    possibly tie Calzaghe and Eubank.

    Ottke is most accomplished , but also sadly biggest cheat.
