2. Wright (may be falling off a bit on the D, but it's still 2nd only to Floyd's, and has yet to legitimately lose; extremely technically sound)
3. Pac (#1 in terms of entertainment, but he's got some obvious flaws, which Floyd and Winky don't)
4. Taylor (2 (controversial) wins over B-Hop when B-Hop was #1 p4p followed by a draw with #2 Winky--even if the decisions were off, the fights were VERY close)
5. Hopkins (moving straight from MW to the LHW championship--nuff said)
6. R. Marquez (needs better fights, but is definitely the man at the lower weights--he'll KTFO Vasquez if that fight happens, for real)
7. Barrera (but agreed he's past his prime--won't likely make this list next year)
8. Castillo (and he ain't going nowhere but up when he beats Hatton)
9. Calzaghe (if he beats Taylor, Hopkins or Wright he cracks the top 5, but I'm not expecting any of those to actually get made)
10. Mosely (looked back to form in the last fight, granted it was against a punching bag--but he'd dominate 147 (except Floyd if he's still there) if he moved back down like he keeps saying he will)

JMM and Casamayor are 11 and 12. Cotto 13. Hatton 14. But Cotto's stock is rising, for sure.
Good list babe.

Saw that...plan on modifying my list on that note. I'll have to place Hopkins either 4th or 5th place too.
