    The Ring:

    Champ: Sergio Martinez
    1. Felix Sturm
    2. Kelly Pavlik - out to lunch, the guy is not coming back at MW
    3. Sebastian Sylvester - barely squeezed by Lorenzo to win a vacant title
    4. Paul Williams
    5. Daniel Gaele
    6. Matthew Macklin
    7. Sebastian Zbik - will get exposed soon
    8. Dmitry Pirog - at age 30, should have a bigger resume... he'd make top 5
    9. David Lopez - last lost in 2005 against a prime Zuniga, no big fights since
    10. Hassan N'Dam N'Jikam - really? even after the war with

    ?


    Boxrec:

    1. Sergio Martinez
    2. Felix Sturm
    3. Daniel Gaele
    4. Dmitry Pirog - points system, only beat Jantuah..? and Jacobs who's beaten... Smith? Walker?!?
    5. Hassan N'Dam N'Jikam - at #5 in the whole MW division? :lol:
    6. Sebastian Sylvester
    7. Garth Wood - :lol: :lol: :lol:
    8. Peter Manfredo Jr
    9. Sergio Mora
    10. Darren Barker

    Here's mine...

    1. Sergio Martinez
    2. Felix Sturm
    3. Paul Williams, back late 2011 I imagine
    4. Dmitry Pirog, should get a big fight next summer, H2H a hard target for anyone
    5. Daniel Gaele, feel bad for putting him up at #5... the man lost his 0 to a 34 yr old Mundine FFS! Hoping the IBF forces Sylvester to fight him.
    6. Gennady Golovkin
    7. Sebastian Sylvester, above average size for a MW, decent workrate, uber protected by Universum
    8. Matthew Macklin
    9. Winky Wright, War Winky :lol:
    10. Sergio Mora/Peter Manfredo Jr, both have lots of experience compared to the rest of the field, both have been in wars and are past their primes

    ...what's yours?

    N'Dam was fighting an 8-8-2 guy in March last year. Took N'Dam 10 rounds to stop him.

    The last time Lemieux fought an opponent with a similar record, it was Thomas Davis in April '09. That was David's 15th fight, turned out to be one of those "KO1"s. :lol:

    Lemieux will be around #5 same time next year. :smoke

    I assumed I would get flamed by those who preach solely by resume, for including him in my top 10. But yeah, he's gonna be up there real soon. Watched the Zertuche and Pavlik fights, some of the Miller fight, and Rubio should be vulnerable to David's straight right and left hook to the temple. This KO will hopefully make enough noise on the MW scene for David to get a good fight before he faces the WBC titlist late in the year.

    Lemieux is way too untested to know how he'll do against a fighter with speed, movement and power, but damn, I hope he's the savior of the division when Maravilla is gone. MW is pretty damn bleak right now.

    Lemieux is lucky Martinez was stripped, because Sergio would kill him. Julio Jr wont fight Lemieux, ever, so he can forget the WBC championship. Sturm and Sylvester definetely wont fight Lemieux (or any other good contenders for that matter), and Pirog beats him IMO. I can't see David becoming a champ next year.

    1. Martinez (the real champ)
    2. Sturm (long reigning titleholder, I kind of wanted to put him beneath Williams n Pavlik)
    3. Williams (win over Martinez better than anyone on this lists' best career win)
    4. Pavlik (was the legit champ, only lost once at the weight to the current champ, so pretty solid)
    5. Sylvester (clear cut next best)
    (significant dropoff)
    6-10. Pirog, Golovkin, Macklin, NJikam, Lemieux

    All of 6-10 would beat Sylvester. He's one of, if not, the worst champions out there who fought for a vacant title against someone who had no business fighting for a world title. He also lost to Karmazin. Pirog's win over Danny Jacobs is a better win than any of Sylvester's defences.

    Oh, and Daniel Geale just comprehensively beat the guy who beat Sylvester, Karmazin.

    Lemieux will become the mandatory of Zbik or Chavez Jr before that fight even takes place. In April 2012, let alone by the end of 2011 if you consider what GYM is saying, if Chavez Jr is still ducking Lemieux the pressure on Top Rank will be enormous.

    I think that fight is HBO Boxing After Dark material for Nov 2011.
