Christian Mijares
That's my list. Not sure if Cotto belongs above or below R Marquez and Vazquez. Initially I put him below but then put him higher on account of his unbeaten status.
I'm not sure. He looks like the man at welterweight and beat a legend in Mosely but I'm not sure if an old Mosely is better than beating R Marquez or I Vazquez or vice versa. I'd certainly have no disagreements with anyone either way,
Calzaghe HAS to be top 3 though I simply will not listen to arguments regarding ranking him below 3rd place.
I decided to drop Hatton out of the top 10 but I'm sure some will stil put him in the last two spots and thrown out Winky Wright. I think Winky should stay though, losing on points at 170 lbs to another p4p star is no reason to be dumped from the p4p spot he held before.
Pavlik will most certainly hit the top 10 if he beats Jermain Taylor in their rematch but I cannot give him a spot now considering he has yet to even make a successful title defense yet.
I certainly think he deserves a spot but not above lesser known but no less acomplished fighters like Ivan Calderon a double weight world champ and unbeaten, and Juan Diaz a two time world champ also unbeaten.
Mijares and Donaire are at the bottom of the list for me as beating Jorge Arc and Vic Darchinyan doesn't put you into the p4p rankings.
Guzman is borderline top 10 imo a double weight world champ and one of my favourite boxers to watche.
Oh yeah and F*** El Gamo
