    Current Ring Top Ten

    1 Manny Pac
    2 JMM
    3 Calzaghe
    4 Hopkins
    5 Vazquez
    6 Margarito
    7 Pavlik
    8 Mijares
    9 Marquez
    10 Cotto


    Are the placings accurate in your opinion? Any one in there who shouldn't be or anyone not there who should be?

    Cotto is too low and Hopkins doesnt even belong on the list

    but they did the right thing bumping JMM over JC for #2

    I think its about right, although Hopkins is way too high

    I want to see Pacq vs JMM. I don't think anyone can dispute they're #1 and #2 at the moment but with Pacq's lacklustre performance against JMM compared to JMM dominating Casamayor, I might even put JMM ahead of him.

    Roy Jones should be on there :yep

    I agree that Margarito is to high, I think Cotto is to high aswell. In my opinion Pavlik should be a bit lower.

    Hopkins needs to get bumped down a bit and Margo shouldnt be in the top ten at all. Just cuz he matched up well against Cotto that night doesn't make him an all around fighter. Good to see Mijares in there.

    Beating two Ring Top Ten fighters in your last three fights and only losing to a Ring Top 5 fighter doesn't mean you deserve to be pushed down the rankings.

    Hopkins deserves to be Top 5, he beat Winky who was rated as high as 3 and he beat Tarver who was in the 10 or close to it.

    On the basis that defeat means you should drop out, JMM shouldn't be anywhere near the 10, nor should Pacquaio - they've lost fights.

    Cotto shouldn't be in that list period you can't lose to a guy like Margo who was barely ranked in the top 25 P4P and stay in the top 10. Hell Hatton was beaten by PBF who was ranked #1 and was dropped out of the top 10 P4P.
