      Jirov should definitely be there.

            I thought Donald looked as good as Toney did against Holyfield.

              This is actually a lot harder to do after the PPV this weekend. So hard, that I am only going to do a top 8 list. 9 and 10 are wide open IMO. No one that really matters impressed me besides Rahman and he did it by beating a guy who doesn't belong in the top 100. Toney was hurt by what Donald did to Holyfield. Ruiz was hurt by his gift decision. Golota was hurt by not looking that great IMO against Ruiz. He did not jab anywhere near enough. Wladimir was helped by TOS's showing against McCall. Brewster was hurt by Meehan's showing against Rahman.

              Before:
              1) Vitali Klitschko: who else is it going to be?
              2) Chris Byrd: great defense, limited offense, quickness is fading.
              3) John Ruiz: manages to fight one shot fighter after another.
              4) Andrew Golota: may or may not be shot.
              5) James Toney: old, injury prone, and running out of time.
              6) Jameel McCline: needs to fight like he is 6'6" and 260 lbs.
              7) Monte Barrett: is doing great with new trainer.
              8) Kirk Johnson: getting blown out by VK doesn't mean he should be off the list.
              9) Lemon Brewster: hopefully his showing against Meehan was because it was a fixed fight.
              10) Wladimir Klitschko: maybe Manny can turn it all around.

              After:

              1) Vitali Klitschko
              2) Chris Byrd
              3) Hasim Rahman
              4) Corrie Sanders
              5) Wladimir Klitschko
              6) James Toney
              7) Monte Barrett
              8) Kirk Johnson

                I thought so too. Toney does not deserve 2 or 3 after how well Donald did against Toney.

                  It is hard to box well against a skilled wrestler.

                  Only a runner (Jones) could do it with a help of a good ref.

                    He didn't throw anywhere near enough jabs though.
