This is very touchy with most people, because he is one fight from being off the list, but one "statement" fight from being top five. With all fairness to his accomplishments, and to his opponents, turn all his close and controversial decisions to draws, and he still hasn't lost to some of the best fighters on the planet, but, he wouldn't be on most peoples' lists. It seems Taylor still needs a career defining fight which sounds ludacris considering who he has fought. If Taylor was to beat, say,Calzaghe convincingly, alot of his slim wins become easier to swallow, but if he loses one of these close fights to a lesser opponent, he will be persecuted. Just some thought about Jermain's situation.

To be fair,(although I question some of the decisions),I vote he stays until HE, is beaten convincingly, because Winky and BHOP are still in the top ten, on most peoples' lists, regardless of their Taylor fights.
