    In 4 years, there are a lot of people we won't be talking about anymore.

      i also don't think dawson will be a top pfp guy in 4 years. dawson has been less than impressive recently.
      I've a feeling Floyd will still be around, maybe one fight per year.

      As for Dawson, he has the skill to still keep him in contention, however just looking over my list again and would take out one of Dawson, Ward, Degale and Bute, seeing as they are at the same or separated by one weight class and don't think all can be top 10 at one time without fighting and dislodging each other. With that said I would probably put Lara in who slipped my mind.

            floyd has the skillset to stick around as he gets older, but he's another one like daswon who just seems not to be fellin it anymore.

              I think Donaire or Khan could be two guys that have that potential to be #1, with their size in their divisions they could continue to move up in weight as well. Donaire could really be in contention for that #1 spot after a couple more fights against top competition.

                  Who? Lemieux, I've not seen many of his fights to really comment, also his record look quite padded at this stage, loads of fighters with heavy losses.

                  I can see Pirog being up there though.

                      Those are my 2 favourites as well, together with Ward, if his streak continues. And also Chad Dawson. Even though I can see the character concerns, I would be very shocked if he's completely out of the picture in 4 years...
