    He has a case. Other fighters could make a case too. but **** man Andre Ward is an exceptional fighter.

    They also had a small article on him in last week's issue. It makes a compelling case for boxing fans to get behind him.

    Can't see 'Nard coming back into the top 15 though, Chad should slip but not that much.

    SI has a decent list. Never had Chad top 10 myself.

    Thats exactly what I was thinking, as much as I love Cotto I would put Froch at #9 and push Cotto to #10 based on both of their last fights

    Why isn't Nishioka in their top 20? Pretty horrible "next five".

    I'd have Froch higher and JMM higher than Nonito, but not bad for a mainstream media outlet commenting on a niche sport.

    Good for SI tryin' to help out the sweet science.
