I like your's best so far I think. It is becoming a very close pick for second spot though. I didn't think Calzaghe or Pavlik deserve to be above Pacquiao but there is an arguement for Cotto imo, not so much based on achievements even as much as how Cotto has looked in his last 3 fights, and the fact that Pac didn't look great in the Marquez rematch. Definetly don't think Calzaghe could overtake either of those two though, based on achievements or ability. Pavlik as well, is just too limited to be called a better fighter than Pac Cotto or Joe imo, though if he keeps KOing top fighters it's hard to use that arguement. I personally wouldn't have Hatton or Winky WRight on the list at all either, unless either can redeem themselves BIG time. Guess I may as well just try and put together my own 10....So,
1.Mayweather
2.Pacquiao
3.Cotto
4.JM Marquez
5. Calzaghe
6. I want to put Joan Guzman fairly high, since Id give him every chance at beating Pacquiao or Marquez, as well as most anyone else from 126-135 the more I see of him.
-From about number 3 on the order could go just about anyway, but especially from here imo, my 6-10 spots. It's too subjective but oh well.
7. Israel Vasquez
8.Rafael Marquez
9.Ivan Calderon
10. Hopkins
Honourable Mentions: Jorge Linares, Winky Wright(though I suspect he is not capable of performing like he did a couple years back, at any weight therefore maybe not deserving of a top 15 spot.) Oh Christian Mijares, I really like him, but don't know nearly enough of the lower weights to rate him properly, maybe he could've made a top 10 spot.. I'm sure there are a ton of lower weight fighters that are in contention at the least so I won't even try.

[quote=Pacstraightleft;511732]He beat Pac twice with what?.. with weak ass counterpunching? Sorry but imo, fighters who are more aggreesive and inflect bigger damages gets my vote for the win.
Pac sent JMM 4 times to the canvas.
to be fair though in the first fight JMM recovered from a devastating 3 knock down opening round to dominate the rest of the fight and in my eyes take at least 7 of the remaining 11 rounds!!
By the end of the 2nd fight i had it 114-114 dead level even though pac got a ridiculous 115-112 from one of the judges.
JMM can count himself VERY unlucky not to of scored one win over pac in the 2 contests they fought.
PS:As for the guy who has pavlik over calzaghe.......are you serious??![]()
one dangerous horrible bloke

I just modified Killersheeps list a little. I think third on down are all validly debatable. Admittedly I don't watch man fighters below around 130. there are alot of really good fighters around now, who you can criticize in this way or that way. but every one of them I think, "gosh Calzaghe beat Hopkins, Kessler, reigned over the division for 10 years". Or Vazquez "is coming off winning the greatest trilogy ever." Or Cotto has dismantled everyone he has faced including Mosely and made Paulie take a huge one sided beating (and Paulie has since become a star in his own right.) JMM has a great resume behind him and fought Pac and always showing of himself.
Pavlik has been very dominant as a limited fighter.
The weakest name I have on my list is Winky at tenth. Coming off a loss to a man who just lost, and lengthy inactivity he is hard to put on any list. However, he has been a super tough opponent with one of the greatest career resumes as anyone in the game. Also he made a good showing of himself in the deep waters of a much heavier division against Hopkins in a fight I thought was poorly refereed. To overcome all of this he should have made the fight with Kessler or someone very soon afterwards.
All good lists and i like the discussion.
