    K...in their primes, which I have always, even before MAB fought Pacquiao, said was at 122.

    And that's accomplishment wise of course, not H2H or talent wise.

    I support entertaining Boxing. I love to see the Best fighting the best. Fighting means not surviving or Out pointing(If you like it this way, then just watch amateur boxing). No cowardice in my P4P lists.

    Support what you like. Boxing is more than just fighting. When you learn that, you will learn what "boxing" is. Till then, you will fall short as an analyst because you are biased against styles which you don't give credence too.

    Sorry KG, don't think Dawson deserves a slot in the Top 10 just yet. Ademek was tough, and gritty, but not exactly p4p worthy; he'll need a couple of defenses against top quality opposition before he truly becomes worthy, imo.

    Aside from that, not a bad list.

    This was assuming he had beaten Diaconu. Without that win, I wouldn't have put him in.

    Also my list is a 1/2 and 1/2 list. I include skill level and resume. I think Dawson is a highly skilled and the best LHW in the world (minority opinion, but I don't mind that).

    1. Floyd Mayweather
    2. Joe Calzaghe
    3. Bernard Hopkins
    4. Miguel Cotto
    I think these four are a cut above the rest at the moment, then we have;
    5. Manny Pacquiao
    6. Wladimir Klitschko
    7. Israel Vasquez
    8. Kelly Pavlik
    9. Juan Manuel Marquez
    10. Ricky Hatton

    I expect Guzman, Dawson, Donaire and possibly David Haye to break into these rankings pretty soon, and we may see Mosley and Winky Wright reappearing.

    In fairness Ricky shouldn't be penalized too heavily for losing to the best fighter in the World fighting slightly above his natural weight.

    Klitschko needs to be rewarded for complete dominance of his respective division since beating Samuel Peter, who I believe is ranked #1 by the Ring.

    Hopkins has two wins against current top10 P4P fighters in his last two fights, the first of which he leaped two weight divisions and 15lbs to undertake.

    Going just be observing their skills in the ring (not their resume):

    1) Jim Steele - ****ing BOMBASS skills. Only 2-0 right now, but nobody can beat him, nobody.

    2) PBF

    3) Calzaghe

    4) Paq

    5) Pavlik

    6) Wvladamir

    7) Winky

    8. Bhop

    9) Cotto

    10) Vasquez

    As for Winky being ahead of Bhop when Bhop won, I'd like to note that that fight was 7-5 for Bhop (not the BS lop-sided score cards) at a weight that was too heavy for Winky. Maybe Bhop could still beat him at 160, who knows, but you can argue for Wink even if that was the case. Styles make fights and I give Winky the slight edge overall. I think it's stupid that Winky was top 3 on every *sane* persons list, then falls off completely just for a loss to Bhop at 170. Pardon me for suggesting this is because of Winky's style that many don't enjoy watching. Could any other fighter have fallen so fast in fans eyes in that situation?

    Mayweather didn't totally dominate Hatton? You are a dirty ****ing hater!

    And you put Pac Man number1 for beating up all the old proud Mexicans that he already beat?

    What a ****ing goof you are.
