    I would probally go with this list. The first 3 are locks where they are. Abraham is a pretty clear 4 and Eastman had a very good run for a few years.

    1. Hopkins
    2. Pavlik
    3. Taylor
    4. Abraham
    5. Eastman

    That's kind of why I went with Tito. Although he didn't have many either, he did win titles, and fought B-Hop.

    I like the Trinidad pick because his talent was well lets just say a **** load better than Sturm.

    This is a great list.
