    1. Erik Morales (the guy still is taking on strong opposition, and although I still want him to retire, he does me proud every time out)

    2. Miguel Cotto (lets his fists do all the talking)

    3. JMM (class act and one of the best technicians to ever lace them up, if Hopkins has found the fountain of youth, than Marquez is drinking the piss from whoever sipped it lol)

    4. Sergio Martinez (the man is desperate for anyone worthy to come bring him a fight, how rare is it that you hear a guy calling out EVERYONE when he's already the big fish in his weight class)

    5. Campillo (he was a huge underdog against Cloud and the decision was utter bullshit, the fact that the IBF denied him a rematch is bigger bullshit)

    6. Wlad Klitschko (the guy fights everyone yet is criticized for not fighting anyone who can test him, it's not his fault that everyone else in the division can't hold his jockstrap)

    7. Jose Pedraza (local guy who won medals at the Central American games and the Amateur Championship in Italy a couple years back, he's very likely going to be the future of PR boxing)

    8. Orlando Salido (he's the Glen Johnson of the featherweight division, came here twice, took his lumps and forced the outcome)

    9. Abner Mares (he has skills, a bit dirty and a weak opponent choice for his next fight, but he's a smart fighter and when pushed he's an all natural fighter)

    10. Jorge Linares (always have liked this kid, a good pure boxer with crazy power)

    It's hard to imagine Salido losing 11 fights, he must have reinvented himself, either that or he just knows how to beat Lopez. It will be interesting to see how Salido does now against the other top dogs in his weight class, a 3rd fight with Lopez is pointless.

    agree that a 3rd fight would be pointless, especially right now, Lopez didn't learn shit from his loss and is looking up to a year suspension from the WBO and maybe even from fighting in PR due to his comments, unless he makes a huge change in his life and career the guy isn't gonna do much more, I actually wouldn't mind a Salido/Gamboa rematch cause even though Gamboa won clearly Salido did get the KD, so lets see if he would be able to make some tweaks and show up better than last time out

    I forgot to add Bute to my list, he may be the best Super-Middleweight in the division, there's a good chance he'll fight "SOG" Ward next if he gets by Froch.

    Do not let success go to your head and do not let failure get to your heart.

    Unless they fight in the U.S. like Froch has, we don't get to see a lot of your lads in the UK, it's a shame really, a lot of it has to do with the time difference.
    For example, up until Joe Calzaghe demolished Jeff Lacy. I amost didn't know who he was, to be honest at the time I thought he was a fraud, with an obscure strap, (WBO) who only fought pub-bums in the UK. Boy was I ever wrong!

    Lopez appears to done at the championship level, Salido exposed all his flaws, and gave him 2 beatdowns, his confidence has to be shattered.

    A Salido/Gamboa rematch would be great, I believe Salido does much better the next time.
