Who will be at the top of their weightclasses late 09?

[JazMerkin]

Heavyweight: David Haye, I'll admit this is probably my heart ruling my head.

Cruiserweight: Tomasz Adamek

Light-Heavyweight: Chad Dawson, by next year I wouldn't be surprised if he could beat JC.

Super-Middleweight: Mikkel Kessler - In my mind head & shoulders above a very tough division.

Middleweight: Kelly Pavlik - I think he will come back from the Hopkins defeat, and hopefully fight Abraham to decide it in the next year.

Light-Middleweight: Paul Williams - if he stays at this weight.

Welterweight: Antonio Margarito/Paul Williams - will beat Mosley & Cotto. However, if he fights Williams again (which he probably won't as I think PW will stay at 154) then I think he will lose.

Light-Welterweight: Manny Pacquiao - Let's face it everyone knows this is between two guys, but I think Manny's speed will be just a bit too much for Ricky.

Lightweight: Juan Manuel Marquez
Super-Featherweight: Edwin Valero - If he gets the fights he will destroy everyone.

Featherweight: Yuriorkis Gamboa - Like you say a very tough division, I'm going with Gamboa purely on how much I enjoy watching him, and the fact I think he will take riskier fights than Luevano or John.

Super-Bantamweight: Juan Manuel Lopez - Think he will take over this year. I think Marquez & Vasquez have been in the wars too much with each other & will have lost something.

Bantamweight: Abner Mares - Between him & Penalosa here.

Super-Flyweight: Vic Darchinyan

Flyweight: Nonito Donaire - If he stays at this weight obviously.

Junior-Flyweight: Ivan Calderon

Minimumweight: Have to admit don't know enough about anyone at this weight.
