I must admit, it's very hard to arrange the 6-10 right now.. a lot of these guys are great fighters..
I imagine there will still be some big changes as we get closer to the year-end (PBF / Hitman, Cotto/Mosley)
I have also dropped Wright from my list as he has been less than impressive for me lately. He is having weight issues and is fighting those bigger guys who are not making him look good (Hopkins, Taylor) He is 1-1-1 in his last 3 fights and I think he should have stayed at 154, where he would have dominated and not chase the middleweights and up. At MW-LHW I just see too many guys beating him.. But like I said..I don't think he can make 154 anymore and he will not be successful at his current weight
The reason I rate Calzaghe over Pacquiao is that I feel Calzaghe's skills are far more superior to Pac's. Pac is effective yet limited. He did beat up the two Mexican best, but as we have learned, they did age overnight after all the trilogies and the wars they have been to.
1 - Mayweather
2 - Calzaghe
3 - Pacquiao
4 - J.M.Marquez
5 - Hopkins
6 - Vazquez
7 - Pavlik
8 - R. Marquez
9 - Hatton
10- Cotto
