What will the top 10 boxingstars globally look like today?
Pretty difficult because how do you measure stardom?
Is it a question of:
A: how big a gate you make?
B: How big a purse you command?
C: How many people know who you are?
D: Etc.
Plenty of options. I find it impossible to make a list objectively, but from a global perspective with my own undefined subjective criterias, my top 10 boxing stars looks like this:
1: Manny Pacquiao
2: Floyd Mayweather
3: Miguel Cotto
4: Wlad Klitschko
5: Vitali Klitschko
6: Ricky Hatton
7: Bernard Hopkins
8: Arthur Abraham
9: Kelly Pavlik
10: Mikkel Kessler
11: Lucien Bute
Hmm.... looking at it it might be slightly biased towards europeans although I cannot really say who should replace who. Do you?
EDIT: I've put in Hatton at no.6. Everybody else drops one place accordingly.
