Floyd

Calz
Cotto
JMM
Kessler
Haye
Shane Mosley
Jorge Linares
Vlad
Hopkins
Chris John
Ricky Hatton
Lucian Bute
Cristian Mijares
Chad Dawson
Israel Vasquez
Kelly Pavlik
Nonito Donaire
Rafa Marquez
Joan Guzman
Jermain Taylor
Wright
Cory Spinks

Replace Dawson with Calderon


Apart from that good list

[Decebal]

I don't think Bute is one of the best 25 in the world yet.

If Andrade beats Stieglitz and Bute beats Andrade whilst proving he can deal well with Andrade's pressure, he is Top 30 for sure. If he beats Taylor, then, he is Top 25 at least. If he beats Pavlik, he is Top 20, just. If he beats Froch v. Inkin winner, again, he is Top 20. What I think, anyway.

I know he isnt very active anymore but Oscar De la Hoya easily has top 25 p4p skills/talent and resume he belongs on that list. He took Floyd to a SD your number 1.

[McGrain]

Calderon is an absolute must.

Calderon


Apart from that good list
If i'd ever seen him fight i might, but i know fuck all about Calderon

[brooklyn1550]

I'd add Ivan Calderon and Juan Diaz to that list.

who are you removing?

seems like Calderon is in from the first few comments

[brooklyn1550]

who are you removing?

Cory Spinks and Lucian Bute. If Bute beats a guy like Froch or Inkin, then I'd have no problems putting him top 20-25.

k i'll take note. I admit a little bit of bias for Bute here.

I'll add Calderon and Juan Diaz to my list and figure out who is out when i determine the rankings

[BewareofDawg]

Kessler at #6 :rofl :rofl :rofl

I'm leaving this forum :yep

I'm leaving this forum :yep
the list is not in order yet

but seriously please do leave.

[jimmie]

who in that list do you think Oscar is better than?

As far as talent goes I could stick him in the top 10 but I understand his recent resume isnt too great so im not going to overate him like I see on some list wheres hes in the top 12. Id stick him ahead of Linares,Bute and John for sure they have yet to do much of note the only really good win any of them have is Johns over JMM and im not sure if u saw the fight but u probablly know what im hinting at. At worst id rank him low 20s I could make a case for being in the mid to low teens.

[andyZOR]

Kessler at #6 :rofl :rofl :rofl

I'm leaving this forum :yep


They arent in order I dont think... he just mixed up the top 25 boxers.

I have only seen Calderon in a highlight reel at youtube against Cazares..
From that, I would rate Cazares above Calderon, to be honest. Calderon may have skills he didn't show in those eight minutes, tho.

Amazing how he got the decision, tho..
Is the highlight reel biased or am I missing something here?

[Snorkel]

I think Abraham has a better shout than Bute. Either way, they're occupying the lower end of this list.

Clinton Woods should be up there too; wins over Gonzalez and a win over Hoye and Johnson are solid performances. If he beats Tarver then he has to be in there somewhere.

I'm no expert on the lower weights, but I'm not convinced Donaire belongs just yet, even though the punch he threw against Vic was a thing of beauty.
