    When has Williams been in a bad fight though?

    Sharmba Mitchell, Darrius Mattyse, Antonio Margarito, Carlos Quintana (x2) were all quality fights worthy of re-watching any day and then of course a legit FOTY canidate with Sergio Martinez. If you match him well, he gets hit and takes risks enough to always make a fight with high drama. What's not to like about Paul Williams, he's a born fighter imo.

    OK, assuming Vazquez is retiring here is my list just based solely off personal preference.

    1. Manny Pacquiao
    2. Miguel Cotto
    3. Rafael Marquez
    4. Antonio Escalante
    5. Michael Katsidis
    6. Librado Andrade
    7. Juan Manuel Marquez
    8. Timothy Bradley
    9. Yuriorkis Gamboa
    10. Robert Guerrero

    Also Adamek, Margarito (if he is going to be an active boxer...), Ali Funeka, Juan Diaz (who knows if he still has it), Glen Johnson, Ji-Hoon Kim, Sakio Bika,Humberto Soto, Fernando Montiel, Koki Kameda, etc.

    What I'm more offended by is Abraham's inclusion. I mean yeah fight changing power no doubt about it, it gets your blood going. But come on! When has Abraham ever been in a stirring fight until the knockout? Totally undeserved, people just assume he's exciting for some reason when he's really not.

    As much as I hate him, Amir Khan should, at least, be in the ten who missed out.

    I'm glad somebody else has said that. I was going to but i'm not brave enough.

    He's been in some very entertaining fights, and the fights which jave ended early have been spectacular

    The only fight for me that was really exciting for WIlliams was the Martinez fight. All the others where decent fight's nothing really to get you going.

    I do agree with Abraham as well. I always thought he was very boring. Plod forward, hands high, and counterpunch. Same routine over and over.
