    Not a bad list in my opinion.
    Cotto is a bit high, Gamboa is more ranked by potential than by actual achievement and my main quarrel is Hopkins, who I would not have in my top10 anymore. Some will have a problem with Mosley in that list, but I believe he is still a top10-15 fighter.

        Let's see your list if you feel strongly opposed of that list.

          mosley no way - he was dominated by floyd, then drew with mora?? his days in the p4p 10 are over.

          apart from that pretty similar to mine, apart from i wouldn't have lopez in there either, i think he's over rated. i'd have jean pascal in there, plus maybe bradley and chad dawson. dawsons stock has plummeted since losing to pascal, but i think he will redeem himself. he didn't prepare properly and it was a close fight when it was stopped. i'd say b hop still deserves the benefit of the doubt atm, but we will see if he still deserves to be in there when he fights pascal.

              I agree with this list except the last three.

              Id put Juanma instead of Gamboa for his two division belts, and better opposition faced.

              Id demote Nonito Donaire to number ten to put Wladimir Klitschko in number 9, as Wladimir has done more pound 4 pound stuff than Donaire, who has lacked good opposition recently.

                    True. I mean Cotto is way up there, Bernard has not looked that impressive lately either. and Sergio Martinez just above Mosley? ...i dont think so.

                    1. Manny Pacquiao
                    2. Floyd Mayweather
                    3. Sergio Martinez
                    4. Wlad Klit
                    5. Vitali Klit
                    6. Juan Manuel Marquez
                    7. Fernando Montiel
                    8. Lucian Bute
                    9. Timothy Bradley
                    10. Juan Manuel Lopez // Andre Ward

                    I understand, they are the bigger names in the sport.

                    but some of these guys in the list just have not been as impressive
