    Cotto slots in between Williams and Dzinziruk for me. At this point we're really ranking Dzin on reputation anyway though rather than anything he's actually done anytime recently.

    I'd move Santos down. Again there's not a lot of meat behind his recent ranking, he looked horrible against Foreman, and Foreman hasn't exactly franked the form.

    I'm a huge critic of Kermit Cintron, but I'm not sure Foreman merits being ahead of Cintron or Angulo.

    New weight division; he replaces the man he just beat.

    Everyone below him takes the knock but Vanes holds his place.

    i would say 2nd to. Put Foreman to 10, Santos to 12, and move Vanes above Acline.

    its a pretty good division now when you add martinez to the mix

    On the other hand Cotto has fought more top ten LMWs than Dzindiruk in the past four years...
