      My (slightly outlandish and definitly shocked reactions) from another thread.
      Doniare at 2? Mosley, who lost to cotto, at three (ABOVE HOPKINS!?!?! when did he jump Bhop? he hasnt fought since Jan?) (Cotto at 8)
      JMM, who just got whooped by Floyd is at 5 and Floyd is at 8.
      Callerbo is on the list!
      Inactive guys like Rafa and Vasquez are there.
      That is one of the worst lists I have EVER seen the Ring put out.

            I heard people put Floyd back at number 1, which i thought was ******.

            Pac's fought and beat Marquez in his natural weight-class, beat Diaz for a belt Diaz held, beat Hatton in his natural weight-class for a belt, Beat DLH while the whole world had Pac getting KO. All this while Floyd retired, then Floyd comes back to fight a LW and doesnt even come in with the 144 weight agreement. So he deserves number 8. Fight legit WWs then he can have 1 back

              I really do not think it changes that much it is the same guys just in a better order. The guys are all very good fighters but should this really be the list of the 10 best based on what has happeaned recently?

                A valid point. Rafa and Izzy on the list does not really make sense. They are not active and not fighting legitimate opposition. They are non factors.

                  Nothing worse than Paul Williams not being on the list. Actually there is, Shane Mosley being number 3 when he lost to Cotto and struggled mightily against Mayorga. That clearly tells me GB has a play in the rankings.

                  At least Rafa is moving his way down finally after not winning a fight in two years.
