    Damn, I haven't posted here in around a month, but was sure that Khan was one of the most hated fighters on this board, surprised to see him in so many of these lists.

    1 Andre Ward - Wins the super Six, beating Dirrell, Froch and Kessler again.
    2 Chad Dawson - Beats Pascal and Cloud in confirming his place as the #1 at 175.
    3 Wladimir Klitschko - Still winning at HW, beats two of Adamek/Haye/Boytsov
    4 Nonito Donaire - Beats Montiel and Mares and becomes the #1 bantam.
    5 Amir Khan - Beats Maidana and Alexander
    6 Yuriorkis Gamboa - I think Marquez beats JuanMa, Gamboa fights him and his speed and power is too much. Becomes the #1 FW, possibly beats Chris John along the way.
    7 Andre Berto - With Mosley, Floyd, Cotto and Pac gone, establishes himself as the #1 at 147.
    8 Tim Bradley - Doesn't fight either Khan or Alexander, moves up to 147, behind Berto at this point.
    9 Paul Williams - Still fighting top names and holding his own, but picks up a loss before then.
    10 Nkosinathi Joyi - Moves up as Calderon retires or gets beat by Segura, establishes himself as the #1 light fly-weight.

    That was tough.

    well since dawson and ward seem to be destined for p4p greatness, who wins between them?

    i'm assuming this would take place at 175

    I think I'd go with Ward.

    He seems like the kind of fighter that could go up against a guy who's quicker, stronger or moth athletically gifted and just find a way to win. A quality that I think will see him beat Dirrell.

    I think number one P4P will be Yuriorkis Gamboa. He's gonna beat (probably) Lopez, Caballero, and Chris John on the way.

    Not only those wins but the speed and power he shows is something all boxing fans like to see. If not number one p4p den atleast top 3

    I agree with your top six, although I don't know if Rigondeaux will be there just based on poor management and lack of fights. I really dissagree with JuanMa, Berto and Cotto though. I think Cotto will definitely be retired in two years. Berto is never going to be top ten p4p IMO. And having JuanMa on there and not Gamboa I strongly dissagree with because I think they will eventually fight and Gamboa is going to KO him. Otherwise though I think this list is really good. Here's how I would have it though:

    1. Ward
    2. Dawson
    3. Rigondeaux
    4. Donaire
    5. Amir Khan
    6. Wlad
    7. Dirrell
    8. Williams
    9. Bute
    10. Martinez (although he'll be 37 in two years)
