Think you should swap Burns with BJS, Ricky has achieved a lot in his career but look at the last 18 months BJS has had some great results whereas Ricky has fallen away, Surely the list is about who is the best now.

Also would definitely have Mitchell ahead of P. Smith, but really i'm nit picking, its a good list :TU:

To be fair I'm starting to think it's time to remove Froch too.The guy has been out for so long it's hard to justify his inclusion.

Saunders has struggled with Eubank Jr and Ryder in recent fights. Saunders has also only had two fights in the last 18 months.

Burns has looked awful in a few of his recent fights, but I scored the Figueroa fight in his favour and that would be a bigger win than Saunders has had so far. Add that to the rest of Burns' record (2 weight WBO champion etc) and he deserves to be a bit higher at the moment.

Lee struggled to beat Horta by split decision 15 months ago and he's been behind in every fight since.

If he beats Saunders in September then I'll raise him up a few places.

So you want Brook to be No. 1 by default?

Why would a win over saunders move lee up a few places when you have said that saunders has struggled with eubank jnr & ryder?

He's still clearly the best.

12 months out is not really that long for a boxer, it happens all of the time. I don't know why so many people make such a fuss about it.

I've not been as impressed with either of them in recent fights as most people seem to have been.

Groves is fighting Jack next month. If he wins that then hopefully people will be happier with him being above Lee and Selby.

You don't move andy lee up for beating better fighters than bjs because he's been behind in fights.

You don't move bjs up because he struggled with eubank jnr and ryder.

You say that Lee will move up 'a few places' if he beats bjs.

You do not make sense
