    3 division world champ, huh? We won the WBC Flyweight title.. and losing it without defending.. then won the vacant WBA Bantamweight belt when Moreno is the real champ? He's not even ranked top 5 in bantamweight despite the 4 title defenses.. where as Broner/Khan/Peterson are all top 3 in their weight classes. Khan was even on his way to the p4p top 10 rankings before the Peterson loss.

    I like the list but I would move Hopkins much closer in the top ten.

    I'd have Lucas Matthysse above Devon Alexander, despite the robbery verdict. Thought he beat Judah and Alexander and I've had Alexander losing his last three fights.

    Maidana is one of my favorites no doubt about it, but number 30?, above Khan and Peterson. I'm not sure about that.

    I agree with the post above mine though, your top 10 is great.

    I'll be completely honest. I don't agree with a lot of your posts you make when an opinion is expressed, that being said I respect the effort put into this list and I can say that while I may switch around quite a lot of names you have them in the same sort of groupings I do. Good read.

    While reading a robbery of the year thread, while I thought Chisora and Lara where at the end of the most despicable verdicts of the year my heart went out to Matthysse more so. I thought he was robbed in both fights of clear decisions. This should have been his year and should have been the time he took up the mantle of the divisions number 2.

    That's a pretty good list. Well done not sure I could find the time or concentration to do a top 100.

    Paul Williams - 49
    Erislandy Lara - 73 That's a bit dodgy when Lara was clearly robbed against him.

    Other than that I don't have too many complaints.

    How can Rios, Ricky Burns (even though being Scottish I'm a huge fan) and Maidana be above Khan? I'm in no way an Amir Khan fan, especially after the way he's acted after the Peterson loss but I really dont see how you can justify him being lower than those three.

    Some effort with the list though, I probably wouldn't even know enough to be able to do a top 100 in all honesty

    I see that for sure. Beyond respect it.

    I scored Matthysse/Alexander to Matthysse by 1 point. I scored Matthysse/Judah to Judah by 1 point. I scored Alexander/Kotelnik a draw. They were all razor close. I think claiming "robbery" on these would make almost every 115-113 fight a robbery.

    Thank you. I'm only ever serious about anything 10% of the time, so, yeah that may explain it.

    I think what you touched on is what people miss out on. People get caught up in the whole individual placement of so-and-so and so-and-so, but it's more so groupings and general assessments relative to your view of their achievements and your perceiving of their skill.

    About Matthysse, couldn't agree more. Imagine the kind of match-ups he would have given us/be giving us. Also, a shame he pulled out of the Morales fight.
