    Fair enough. Good points. But Haye has also beat both fighters while they were champs,the first of which was on his hometurf, by KO. He has won 2 title fights, with the other being for unification. Pavlik won all his belts from one fighter. Miranda, while an impressive win, was against a Top 5 middle who lost to Abraham (again, albeit controversially).

    I think Pavlik is one win away from a quality opponent from the Top 10. Haye could either get blown out by the heavies or keep winning. I think the next 6 month interval will be more accurate in terms of where each fighter stands.

    About Winky, his resume is pretty deep. Two wins over Mosley and a 12-0 shutout over Trinidad combined with solid wins over Soliman and Quartey are a body of work that is good enough to keep him up top. Sure he lost to Hopkins, but he was 10 lbs. over his current fighting weight of 160. The fight was a challenge that he took because he wanted to see how well he could do 2 weight classes above against a P4P opponent.

    The only knock on him is like Hopkins, he has been inactive. It's clear that he wants Pavlik at 160, and if he doesn't get him, he'll sit and do nothing, not even a tune-up to stay busy. I think it's a dumb decision because Arum (like King but not as bad) is a master at protecting a belt. The Bobfather won't put Kelly anywhere near a stylistic nightmare like Winky for awhile. If Winky really wants the big money, he should take a fight at 168 against a Top 10 opponent. That way, he has options, especially if Calzaghe beats Hopkins in April.

    Then again, maybe Winky thinks 160 is heavy enough after his last venture to supermiddle/light heavy didn't work out too well. Either way, he needs to fight someone soon because it's getting ridiculous.

    As much as I would like to say Pacquiao's #1, I think Floyd is #1 by head and shoulders until he loses, or gets stuck in a controversial decision.

    Let's be honest about Enzo though. Him being a "champ" was a complete and utter joke. He's not a complete bum but like Miranda he's not exactly elite either. Mac's career was navigated by Warren afterall. I don;t consider him better than miranda because Warren got him a title by fighting garbage. We will see I guess.

    I dont know why WInky is so low. He lost to Hopkins WAY past his best weight and seems like he just drops out of the Top 10 like nothing.

    Not Bad, but Pavlik has to be higher.

    Not in my mind he doesn't, no way. The guys above him are better fighters, full stop.
