    How the hell should Wlad be in there?! The heavy's and i mean all of them are a joke at the mo, and i know i'll probably be slated for this from peeps over the pond but if another classy heavy like Lewis came along, then Wlad would lose 10 times out of 10. I think Hatton should be higher, dont think he should be punished for losing outside his weight class to the best in the business. Pavlik has had 2 good k.o's and he's straight in there, not sure how much sense that makes but hey!!

    In Wlads last 10 fights he has won 8 by KO, Beat the guy regarded as number 2 by many in the divison by coming of the canvas to win on points, and the only loss he avenged in his last fight.

    Taylor was number 4 on my list before he lost to Pavlik and Miranda was in my top 30 before he lost to Pavlik. He therefore knocked out a top 30 and top 5 fighter.

    Hatton was never in my top 10 anyway, he has only moved down 3 places.

    No way is any of the heavys deserving to be in p4p top ten. Such a boring, weak division nowadays. I think David Haye needs to be given more credit for what he achieved, in going to the champs back garden and knocking out the best in the division. Now yes yes you may say Pavlik did the same but i just dont he's been around long enough. If he does it to Taylor again in Feb then he should defo get a place in the top 10. Taylor should never have been no4 in your old list anyway, such an overated, american hype job!

    I agree with the top4, just think Ricky needs to slip in there at number 5 or 6 probably, dont think he deserves to have digs at him because he lost to the best, for god sake a light middleweight couldnt put a scratch on PBF so how the hell do they expect a LWW to?! He'll move back down, knock seven shades of **** out of that cocky ass Malignahggininia and then unify by beating witter convincingly and prove to all how he is easily in the top5 best in the world.
