Saddo's Pound For Pound Voting (Summer 2010) voting open till May 31st

[JazMerkin]

Ok people, it's the return of the Saddo's Pound For Pound Top 10, anyone unfamiliar with it, should get the gist of it here, if there's anything unclear let me know.

Because I don't have as much time on my hands, I will only update the list once every 6 months, apart from moving the boxers up a place each if say Hopkins retires or something. This means I will try & drop a new one at the start of June & December. To this I will stop counting votes at the end of the preiouvs month. Once you've made you're list, unless you update it I will assume it stays the same, although if a poster only posts briefly & then disappears for a large amount of time I will disregard their vote.

Only three rules, you have to submit at least a Top 10 (preferably top 20 if you can as this will make it easier for me to analyse a top 10 better), so that means no simply going 'Pacquiao/Mayweather/Arnaoutis number 1!!!!', if you don't submit at least a full top 10 your vote won't be counted. If possible please do a Top 20.

Secondly, you can only nominate officially active boxers, so no Calzaghe nominations unless they come out of retirement.

Thirdly, to vote you must have at least a 100 posts by the time of the end of each vote. This rule has been brought in after some suspicious voting on our first run of the votes. Any votes thought to be trying to influence the result will be ignored. This will only be done after a check of said poster's posting history on said fighter they are thought to be trying to influence against. This is after a rash of these last time out.

Want to stress that everyone's vote is worth the same whether they be one of the older, more valued posters or whether their new, & it doesn't matter what I think of you. If anyone wants to check over it, I will explain to them in a PM exactly how I came by the rankings, so they can test the results to prove I ain't pulling a Bush in Florida (cue irate rant from Lyle ).

Anyway guys, roll em in, & at the end of the month, I will post up the Saddo Pound for Pound Top 10 that we can say represents the general view of the forum (well those who bother to vote)
