Hopkins or Dawson at light heavyweight. Hopkins for now. Sergio at middleweight hands down. Floyd at welterweight, and Id actually say Chambers at heavyweight.Comment

140: Amir Khan
147: Floyd Mayweather, but I thought of Manny because he has more power and takes every shot given to him. Just something to consider.
154: Sergei Dzinziruk
160: Sergio Martinez. Like, WTF at Manfredo? > >
168: Lucian Bute, even though Dirrell is more talented. Bute's counters have that KO power.
175: Bernard Hopkins. Dawson might be bigger, younger, and faster but show me a fight where Hopkins is overwhelmed by an attack - I dare ya. I'll show you two for Dawson.
Cruiserweight: Errr... IDK, division is so European right now that I haven't seen a fight in this division for ages except a little Lebedev before the Huck fight. Wouldn't this be Troy Ross, though? Or Cunningham?
Heavyweight: Tough. Adamek, Haye, Solis, Chambers, and Vitali (yes, seriously) all stand out uniquely. Adamek is the more complete than Fast Eddie with the ability to slip better, so Chambers is out. Haye has dangerous power and the most speed. Sloppy defense, but any punch you throw might be your last. Adamek is hittable as well, without what Haye brings so he's out. Solis is most talented but I'm not sure I like that lack of power or the slappy punches. I think a good enough fighter overrides his counterpunching if they have the style to walk through him so I'll take him out. Vitali is too old, I think, to be a better counterpuncher than Haye. So... Haye wins.Comment

at Bradley being a counterpuncher. Bradley is alot of things but he ain't no counterpuncher.
