    Stop wt****ing for that. It's Froch's first real test and he was losing until the knock down. I won't put a guy number one after a fight he was losing. More, Taylor was not proven at 168. Number three is his spot and it's even generous as I think Andrade would win against Froch.

    As for Bute, I suggest you read the boxing rules. Andrade knocked Bute down, not out. The boxer has the right to stand up, like Froch did yesterday. If Bute loses because he's kd, the yesterday fight is Taylor by ko in three?

    4. Froch
    5. Bika
    6. Taylor

    I have Kessler at #1. I just brung it up to see if anybody rates his win over Taylor highly enough to rank at #1. I think it's by far a better win then any of Bute's or Kesslers.

    It's not, Tommy, because even if you assume Taylor is better at SMW than e.g. Andrade, Mundine, etc., the manner in which you win also matters. Think about it.:good

    I'd put Balzsay ahead of Bika because Balzsay has one good win (Inkin) and Bika already had his chances. Would be a good fight, though. 50/50 IMO.

    If Ward beats Miranda I put him ahead of Pascal, Dirrell and Inkin.

    If Kessler doesn't fight anyone in the next three months and if he doesn't fight anyone of the top10 in the next 7, 8 months he slips to 2nd or 3rd.

    It's a style's thing thought. Froch was never going to dominate Taylor. He wasn't dominated like some people claim either. I mean I've seen scorecards on here where people gave Froch maybe 2 rounds going into round 12 which is ridiculous.

    I don't think any of Kessler, Bute or anybody would beat Taylor convincingly either. If they beat him at all, which they probably would.

    1) Kessler (not for long if he doesn't fight soon)
    2) Bute
    3) Froch
    4) Andrade
    5) Taylor (he won't go much higher because of his stamina problems)
    6) Bika (has to fight soon)
    7) Dirrell
    8 Ward
    9) Balzsay (a win against a aging 42 years old boxer doesn't do it for me)
    10) Green
