    I've heard good things about Junior Wittter but I never seen him fight so thats y I couldnt put him on my top 10. And I also admit it was probly a little early to put Hopkins on there but he has been killing people, and I like to see how he does against some real comp

    I'd put Williams as the favorite over Mosley and Hatton. Williams would also give Mayweather big problems stylistically, but would struggle with Cotto.

    1. PBF
    2. Cotto
    3. Williams
    4. Mosley

    Hopkins was already beat in my eyes by Steve Forbes, who is a former world champ but that knocks D Hop of my list. And also, how do you justify putting Williams above Cotto and Mosley.

    My list

    Mayweather
    Cotto
    Mosley
    DLH (rumors of moving back to 147)
    Hatton
    Williams
    Cintron
    Margarito
    Judah
    Clottey

    Williams over Cotto? :think

    Is your list a rankings list or a list of head to head matchup opinions. If its a rankings list like the thread states, I just cant see Williams being above Cotto yet.

    To me, Cotto is a tough matchup for Williams style-wise because he's so strong and an excellent body puncher. Cotto will do what Margarito didn't--try and walk through Williams's volume punching.

    Boxer/puncher Mosley would have a hard time landing clean on Williams and doesn't have the power to deter his workrate.

    2lb Forbes should be at least as high as #9 if you're going to have D-Hop in the 10 spot.
