I fixed the grading scale how it's supposed to be, or at least how my college and most colleges have it.

obviously martinez @ 160 is the most difficult

This thread is a dream come true for the poster named "Corner" lol!

He does this all the time.

I think Kell Brook because of his size and style being an actual WW, does better than Garcia, Matthysse, Marquez.

Kirkland just sucks, hes too slow and only has a puncher's chance that he will never even get even in 36 rounds with Floyd.

Marquez is an F because that is what he fought like against Floyd, and that is how it would look like if they fought again, probably even worse.

And Martinez is already booked for 2013 so his toughest challenge won't be available until 2014.

And it probably won't be his toughest challenge then.

So you think Erislandy Lara is his toughest fight available outside of Sergio?

It would be interesting to see how he deals with a counter punching southpaw that moves a lot.
