    Name your favorite, and explain why. I'm talking from the friday night fighters to prospects that were hype jobs. Who was or is your favorite?

    B level is someone like Katsidis...

    C level is someone like Kirkland.

    Ricky hatton I agree that was B level.

    Not many brake into the A level.... and then there is the Elite level like Mayweather, JMM, PAC, Donaire, Martinez.

    so superstar status, you say that propels you above the A levels? To a totally different class?

    i wouldnt say martinez was elite to be honest. hes good but you cant put him in the same catagory as Marquez, Mayweather and Pacquiao. Same goes for Donaire

    Long-term no, but short-term, definitely. Martinez is at the top of his division. I think A-level should be defined as top talents and accomplished fighters, not equating it with ATG talent. Even calling Hatton B would be pushing it for me, I'd call him B+.

    Katsidis is a good example of a B fighter. Never quite cracked the cream of the crop, but will beat almost anyone below and around the level he's on.

    Chris Arreola, Lucas Matthyse, Breidis Prescott, Andriy Kotelnik, those are good examples of B-level fighters, and also some of the ones I like to watch.
