    Back then (before the Maidana fight), this is how I would possibly have had it:

    1. Manny Pacquiao
    2. Ricky Hatton
    3. Timothy Bradley
    4. Paulie Malignaggi
    5. Junior Witter
    6. Juan Urango
    7. Andriy Kotelnik
    8. Kendall Holt
    9. Ricardo Torres
    10. Lamont Peterson
    11. Victor Ortiz

    Campbell, Khan and Diaz hadn't fought at the weight yet. Maidana and Alexander weren't around at the time. I think the division didn't have the depth back then compared to now, but Ortiz should still be around 10-15 IMO. If he isn't then I don't see why Maidana is so highly rated TBH (in our ESB rankings).

    IIRC, Maidana was ranked top 10 by the Ring after pushing Kotelnik to the wire. Ortiz was about top 15/20 IMO as he had a decent win against Arnaoutis.

    He hasn't got the best names on his record, but it was the way in which he was beating them that put him that high in my list. Arnaoutis had never been stopped before and he had fought Torres and Urango in the past. Ortiz stopped him in the 2nd (although IMO it was premature). Maussa was stopped in the late rounds by Cotto and Hatton, but Ortiz blasted him out in a round. etc. etc.

    But then that is just my opinion :good

    Khan is saying what all the nuthuggers want him to say.


    Maidana has earned his chance by beating a rising "star" in Ortiz in a fight where he was meant to be the sacrificial lamb.

    Malignaggi imo is still a good fight but i think Maidana should be granted his opportunity especially as Khan got his chance from doing sweet f.a. and it wasnt warranted.

    The difference is Ali had charisma to go with his cockyness.

    Now regarding Khan his cockyness crosses over into arrogance especially on the back of doing nothing remotley great so far in his career.

    Also it doesnt help that Khan talks like he has a gobfull of golfballs. And he has one of them faces you would never tire of punching.

    JMM isn't running scared but Khan isn't a big enough name for him! He has probably only got 1 maybe 2 fights left, why waste one on a unknown (In America) like Khan.

    Hatton is the obvious fight; one last war before age catches up with him.

    Is knocking PM out really going to make him a star in America? He has been beaten 3 times before and 5 fights back he only beat N'Dou on a SD. Hardly Mayweather is he!
