    1.Bernard Hopkins 44

    2.Chad Dawson 27

    3.Glen Johnson 40

    4.Zsolt Erdei 35

    5.Antonio Tarver 40

    6.Roy Jones 40

    7.Clinton woods 37

    8.Jean Pascal 26

    9.Adrian Diaconu 31

    10.Yusaf Mack 29

    Makes me wonder how long these guys can stay in the top ten and continue to turn out good wins true athletes a credit to the sport.
    There are definately some old guys up there, but the ones highlighted in blue I would hardly called old. Both Hopkins and Johnson have shown they are still relevant and are able to fight well at their age.
    For every story told that divides us, I believe there are a thousand untold that unite us.

    6 old guys to 4 young would state that the old guys are dominating the division basically a division full of old guys who have been campaigning 20+ years this was mainly my point.
