I won't go past C. I know I'm missing people, but this was all of the top of my head. What are your guys' grade levels in the WW division?

Looks quite good for me as well.
Although I'd be tempted to put Khan ahead of Brook or Judah, but he hasn't proved himself at 147 yet.
Bradley...he should be on the B list, definitely.
Broner on the C list, just for some giggles.
Lulz, ok...Thurman ain't all that man. His best win is either Soto Karass, Chaves or Zaveck. I mean lets be real here...people are making dude out to be a monster based off of less than stellar opposition. No one else has been able to step to Abregu...he took Dulorme's soul like it was easy street.
Porter had to ask Bradley for fighting strategy to beat Alexander and so far, the only WW to beat Guerrero has been Floyd Mayweather.
Those are his best wins because people like Maidana, Pauli, Guerrero etc don't want to fight him. Use some common sense please. He would KO your boy Bradley. And Chaves is a better fighter than Abregu.
Also, Floyd is the only fighter to have beaten Guerrero at WW because...he's the only semi-decent WW who's been in the ring with Guerrero :lol1:.
Porters a C class fighter ATM aswell as khan,rios,Alvarado and provodnikov. I'd say kell is a D+ he needs to step up very soon.
I could roll with that. Provo only fought at 147 once though, I couldn't put him in the rating

Not bad rankings, but I think I would make a few changes.
I wouldn't have Manny as an "A" right now. I think Manny is currently only an "A" in name, however if he gets past, or just performs very well against Bradley I would move him back up.
I think Alexander is a "B-" fighter, along with Collazo. I've always been high on Collazo, and I think he can beat everyone in your "B" list, but no one in your "A" list.
pac a+ = for beating bradley prime a
bradley a+ = for beating marquez and facing pac
floyd a = i would make a- for fighting no top A prime 147 fighter, unrpoven at 147 lately
marquez b+ for only knocking out pac but losing to bradley
khan c+ his chin drags him down to c
maidana c+ beating broner earned him a plus sign
thurman? i still dont know the kid sorry
I think floyd below PAC is a bit wrong ?????
They are both superstars and if you had to put one on top it would have to be floyd ,
In saying that I personally would say floyd and PAC are a+
And the rest are really classy .
Floyd and PAC are once in a lifetime talents
Khan's a A level fighter in terms of skills. He just doesn't box smart, would be interesting to see if Virgil has improved his game.
Khan has A level natural ability but a low skill level relative to his status in the sport. His speed hides a lot of his flaws but he has no infighting skills and no skills to handle a pressure fighter and is very open defense wise when throwing his combos. Those are not the attributes of A level skills.
pac a+ = for beating bradley prime a
bradley a+ = for beating marquez and facing pac
floyd a = i would make a- for fighting no top A prime 147 fighter, unrpoven at 147 lately
marquez b+ for only knocking out pac but losing to bradley
khan c+ his chin drags him down to c
maidana c+ beating broner earned him a plus sign
thurman? i still dont know the kid sorry
I'd put Abregu up in the B class. He would likely smack Thurman senseless and Chaves would get beaten up badly by him. He'd probably beat Porter up too...Maidana might stand a chance against his Argentinian brother and Malignaggi would have to stick and move all night to avoid getting ko'd.
Guerrero isn't some c class fighter either...getting beaten by Mayweather is one thing but I don't see too many of those other guys beating him.
The rest looks pretty accurate though.
abregu is fighting this friday. he is coming back from another hand surgery. i hope he is fully recovered this time

Josesito Lopez C-
Victor Ortiz D+
I don't think he is either, he has the Pac win but he knows Pac like the back of his hand. I don't even consider him a welterweight, he's never weighed in over 143 lbs.
Well the Pac win and a close loss to Bradley is what has him there for me. I wouldn't be mad if someone had him as a B+ or B fighter.
Lmfao what? Bradley had Abregu dancing. Tim Bradley. Thurman would KO him inside 5, Porter would destroy him as well.
Guerrero outboxing someone? Be serious.
He ducked Thurman because he knew he'd get put to sleep.
Porter would easily beat him, as would most other WWs.

correct me if i'm wrong, wasn't the julio diaz fight considered a welterweight fight? it was at 144 but still.
Ohhh, that's right. You're absolutely correct! As it stands, I would put Khan anywhere from B to C+. I'm curious to see him against Collazo
