Lightweight - #1 Mexico (Vazquez, Estrada, Beltran) #2 UK (Burns, Mitchell, Crolla), #3 Cuba (Gamboa, Abril, Santana), #4 USA (Crawford, Figueroa, Gonzalez), #5 Russia (Shafikov, Klimov, Nugaev), #6 Uzbekistan (Rahimov, Mamadjanov, Rihsiev), #7 Japan (Aoh, Kato, Arakawa), #8 Philippines (Farenas, Gesta, Sismundo), #9 Colombia (Perez, Estrada, Buelvas), #10 Ghana (Amidu, Neequaye, Commey)
Drunk, bro? :yep I'm guessing you meant "McAllister isn't better than Hamilton". I don't know, man. He sure has been cleaning house domestically of late, but do you think Darren hangs tough with Shafikov as long as Lee did?
true but i think darren outpoints lee easy. lee lost to murray who is more powerful than hamillton not as skilled, darren also he has underrated win over theophane
I also put the UK first. Froch isn't better than Ward, no - but the best three Brits make for a deeper squad than our best three: In a round-robin tournament, Ward handles anyone unlucky enough to get him in the draw, but the UK might otherwise go undefeated.
Fair point. I'm definitely open to swapping Hamilton in for Lee, given the run he is on. (also to Brook trading places with Gavin...you've debated both points well :good)
****, I left out Italy at lightweight... (Marsili, Giacon, Zamora) They should definitely be in there. The only question is whether to just switch out Ghana, or place Italy even higher. I'm thinking possibly even #7 or #8, bumping everyone else down. :think
thanks ib i my not know as much as you in boxing but as a brit i do i like to keep track with scene
