    I hear Ali still gets praise. I know, stupid isnt it how anyone who has lost a fight can still be considered good.

    I would reserve judgement on Taylor until he actually has a fight at 168

    Jesus, why so many votes for Taylor? The guy has just lost twice at middleweight yet people expect him to be able to handle bigger guys?

    I'd pick Kessler Bute and Froch to beat him.

    Although it will NEVER happen, I would like to see Kessler v. Taylor. That would resolve this mess.

    Kessler. His track record says it all. Defeating 4 world champions in a row and then a dangerous mandatory. That was the build-up to Calzaghe.

    And then he lost a decision to JoeC despite having no sparring because of a broken right hand. He fought 12 rounds with a broken hand!
