6)ISRAEL VAZQUEZ
7)MIGUEL COTTO
KELLY PAVLIK
9)CRISTIAN MIJARES
10)RAFAEL MARQUEZ
as you can see hatton is now out,which some may agree with some not!
please tell me though why a guy like hopkins is still at no.5 having recent losses to taylor and calzaghe..
going the distance with an overweight and aged tarver and howard eastman get you p4p status???
You can easily defend the top 4 (although I would have Zag at #2) but beyond that it is fuzzy. Hopkins shouldnt be at #5. No way. Too inactive and lost his last fight. Im not sure if Pavlik should be on it yet either (and Im a huge Pavlik fan) and I dont know enough about Mijares to know where to place him. Im a big Rafael Marquez fan as well, but he shouldnt be top 10 after the last couple fights either. I know he moved up in weight, but he still lost.

Hatton didn't do ANYTHING to be kicked off the list? That shit is odd to me. Mijares on the list is wonderful though, showing some love to the smaller fighters.
he is above vasquez because he has fought better comp, and has not been knocked out............like izzy has.............
Hasn't Hopkins lost 3 of his last five fights? And out of those losses, how many has he avenged? Zero, right? And how many fights has Hopkins had in the last 3 years? 5, correct?

also, manny pac is not the 2nd best pfp fighter today.........he has done nothing but beaten used up ring worn fighters.........imo he lost his last fight........and is now fighting a bum in diaz........why has he not faced valero or guzman???....
You say Diaz is a bum then say you want Pac to fight Valero??? A guy who is completely untested and will no doubt get beat the 2nd he fights somebody who's already established themselves.
he is above vasquez because he has fought better comp, and has not been knocked out............like izzy has.............
i have a strange feeling Floyd Mayweather is your favorite fighter followed by BHOP and you believed Paul Williams was a bigger threat in the WW division than Miguel cotto.

For realz. I like Izzy as much as the next guy but he is not a P4P guy.
don't know who that is so.........
To be honest, even though he's the fighter I follow the most, I dont even think JMM should be that high up on the list. I know most believe he won the fight, but a loss is a loss. hate these things though.
I would move Bhop to the bottom half as well, but I'm curious as to why you think Izzy belongs up there?
Because his name is Izzy and rhymes with Lizzy as in Lizzy Borden.
regardless, he should be in the lower half of the rankings. possibly at 7 or 9. There is no reason why this dude should be above Israel Vazquez.

Bernard Hopkins was P4P #1 when he lost to Taylor (not mayweather or anyone else). He dropped in the ratings after losing, then beat the #1 guy at light heavy and champion Tarver (who had just beat Roy Jones twice and Glen Johnson), then beat a top 5 ranked Winky Wright. He then loses a split decision to another top 5 ranked fighter (or 6 at the time I cant remember) and basically they swap places. Make sense?

Wright and Tarver are both light years better than any win Ricky has had in recent times.
oohh mate your reaching now..
how far below the belt do you wanna go(dont answer that)!!
you have actually changed your sig to the hatton/floyd fight,are you that shallow and mentally defunct?
i thought i had a big tool but i think i just met the biggest.
it goes to show that today's fan........ along with guys like merchant and other imbeciles who consider a top fighters career basically over if he loses one fight.......hatton lost to the bst pfp and is out of the top 10........lol........comical...............it shows the stark difference between today's fan and yesterdays fan...........fighters were more appreciated back then........
everytime i read your post, I have Jimmy from South Park's voice playing in my head
