                    Roy Jones
                    Tito
                    Cotto

                    Probably Calzaghe but i dunno if he's better than Cotto on the ATG list

                    You got 8 out of 10, but you made two horrible mistakes. I realize that you might be thinking of their achivements during the 90's and early 2000's so you just included them,

                    But 'of the decade' is 2002-2012? Correct. Last ten years.

                    1-ROy Jones Jr was pretty much shot by 2007(might even be 2006) so it is virtually impossible to include him on that list.

                    He had wins over Woods,Ruiz, and Tarver. Impressive wins no doubt, but he was also beaten or knocked out by a variety of fighers ranging from Tarver and Johnson to Calzaghe/Green.
                    He literally lost 40% of his fights during the last decade, so how can you possibly include Roy as a top 10 fighter of the decade.

                    His best win this last decade was John Ruiz or maybe Tarver I.

                    I think you are thinking of 90's Roy.

                    2- Felix Trinidad?
                    He had one big win the entire decade, he was pretty much retired. He had like 2 comebacks and lost to Wright and Jones. He was done by 2004. His decade once again was during the mid 90's to early 2000's.

                    It's virtually impossible to say Roy and Tito are top 10 from 2002-2012.

                    Other than that, very good list.
