Isn't Damaen Kelly now retired mate?

Plus i would have Barry Morrison above Audley, Morrison won the British title. Audley has done nothing of note recently other than beat up bloater Williams off the back of two high profile losses and a facile blow out of a US journeyman. And probably knock Robin Reid down a bit at least lower than Kevin Anderson anyway. Just my opinion though Horse

Wayne McCullough? I knew there was talk of a comeback, but should he not have a fight first before getting on a list?

i actually have arthur at 11 in mine, something not right about him in my eyes, when he is put under pressure he goes into his shell a bit. i suppose im calling him a 'bully' fighter, but hey, he could still perhaps do it at world level, as could a few others too. my heart puts thaxton in the top 10, just so so pleased to see him achieve something decent in the game when he won that title, but i was gutted lee meager lost the title. confusing i know but it makes sense in my head.

Where does Horse get these p4p rankings from?

I see your point Rhino but isn't the p4p list based on achievements rather than perceptions of weaknesses etc? Not being picky just wondering because Arthur has had a decent run and good reign of the Euro title post Gomez. I think i would nudge him into the top ten if i could be arsed to create one

Kelly announced his retirement, but I am going to wait a while.

Williams was ranked higher than Daws in my ranking, so Harrison climbed higher after his win than Morrison did.

I don't knock people down unless they lose, so Anderson will have to win a few to overtake Reid.

I never took him off my list, and as he intends to continue I am going to keep him on there.

Fair enough, but i myself would have removed him due to inactivity. I notice you dont have peter oboh for example,is that due to injury or you do not feel he is good enough?

Peter Oboh is good enough, but as he has been even more inactive and fought at a lower level than McCullough, I have not included him.
