My two pence:
My last list (23rd February 2006) is:
1: Barrera
2: Wright
3: Mayweather
4: Tarver

6: Taylor
7: Hatton
8: Castillo
9: Marquez (Juan Manuel)
10: Marquez (Rafael)
My new list (6th March 2006) is:
1: Barrera
2: Wright
3: Mayweather
4: Tarver
5: Pacquiao
6: Taylor
7: Hatton
8: Castillo
9: Marquez (Rafael)
10: John
John finds a place at #10 as he beat Juan Manual Marquez
Rafael Marquez moves up a place on the strength of his brother’s defeat.
Although Joe was very impressive, with hindsight, he did not beat a pound for pound top 10 entrant, nor does his record deserve recognition in the top ten at the moment. But the fact he gets recognized in a pound for pound footnote, suggests he is almost top 10.
