    i don't care enough to rank the rest however tarver is last.
    How is Benn above Hopkins, Calzaghe, Eubanks, Tarver, Michalczewski etc? He was a good exciting fighter, but, well, not really that good. If this were about "How do you rate these fighters by excitement?", then he would be up where you put him, but on skill and accomplishment? Just curious?

      LOL at Benn being ahead of Hopkins, that nuts.
      Jones, Hopkins and Toney are the top three.

        I can't be bothered thinking about this too much but I would put them somewhat like this:

        Jones
        Hopkins
        Toney/Calzaghe (I can't decide between Calzaghe and Toney here, but I'm going on Calzaghe beating Jones, otherwise it would definitely be Toney. I give Toney a slight edge overall on accomplishments but of course he had those falls, which throw him a bit. Toney is still probably greater all 'round though)
        Eubank
        Michalczweski
        Tarver
        Benn
        Ottke
        Collins
        McClellan

          lol nice try tunney


          you havent seen much of a prime toney have you?

          hes only fat today because hes old and a bit lazy really, watch him vs nunn, mccallum, barkely or jirov....those were some good performances

          no one in their right mind would rank dariusz,ottke, collins, eubank, benn and calzaghe over toney

          utter bull**** and you know it, rank the white fighters first as always

            yea like another poster said, jones knows toney was the best he ever fought

            toney is a brilliant fighter, calling him bellys out is just dumb...yeah hes fat now but hes ultra skilled

                Nobody else seems to remember that McClellan beat only one good fighter in his entire overrated career. His record doesn't even begin to compare to Michalczewski's.

                  Definitely, as I said earlier, he could have been up there had he not gotten injured but what he accomplished was nowhere near what the other fighters on that list accomplished.

                    Toney's belts from MW > HW are stronger than Calzaghe's reign with alphabet title.

                    Jones Jr.
                    Hopkins
                    Toney
                    Calzaghe

                    Juggle the rest
