    pac a+ = for beating bradley prime a
    bradley a+ = for beating marquez and facing pac
    floyd a = i would make a- for fighting no top A prime 147 fighter, unrpoven at 147 lately

    marquez b+ for only knocking out pac but losing to bradley

    khan c+ his chin drags him down to c
    maidana c+ beating broner earned him a plus sign

    thurman? i still dont know the kid sorry

      Khan's a A level fighter in terms of skills. He just doesn't box smart, would be interesting to see if Virgil has improved his game.

        Khan has A level natural ability but a low skill level relative to his status in the sport. His speed hides a lot of his flaws but he has no infighting skills and no skills to handle a pressure fighter and is very open defense wise when throwing his combos. Those are not the attributes of A level skills.

            I think floyd below PAC is a bit wrong ?????
            They are both superstars and if you had to put one on top it would have to be floyd ,
            In saying that I personally would say floyd and PAC are a+
            And the rest are really classy .
            Floyd and PAC are once in a lifetime talents

                I think Guerrero beats Maidana and at this point, Marquez as well.

                  Porters a C class fighter ATM aswell as khan,rios,Alvarado and provodnikov. I'd say kell is a D+ he needs to step up very soon.

                      Not bad rankings, but I think I would make a few changes.
                      I wouldn't have Manny as an "A" right now. I think Manny is currently only an "A" in name, however if he gets past, or just performs very well against Bradley I would move him back up.
                      I think Alexander is a "B-" fighter, along with Collazo. I've always been high on Collazo, and I think he can beat everyone in your "B" list, but no one in your "A" list.
