Danny William has never been a World Class fighter, but he's shared a ring with some good fighters. He beat the shell of Mike Tyson after Tyson dislocated his knee in the ring. Not making excuses for Tyson, but if you do your knee like that then you're gonna lose a lot of your game plan!

Danny got knocked about by Euro level Sinan Samil Sam like he was a ragdoll. Also take into account the HW scene has been pony for the best part of 5 years (or more) and really Danny isn't much past Euro level himself.

It's true.
Danny is much loved by British Boxing Fans, but he is over-rated by many.
Dominic Guinn is arguably Audley's toughest ever opponent...
Audley has never shared the ring with a world class pro

No way. I don't rank Prescott as a top ten lightweight let alone top five.

i'm just going on form really.

despite not boxing any top fighters he's been dominant at the level he's fighting.

for me that suggests he's top 10 level.

bottom half is a fair enough rating for what he's done so far.

Fair enough mate, I just think there are at least 10 guys who should be ranked above Prescott at LW

Marquez, Diaz X3, Valero, Romanov, Guzman, Casamayor, Katsedis, Campbell (there are props a few more too)

Prescott could go into the group after these guys, but as pointed out that's probably mostly on the strength of beating Kahn, whose ranking might have been slightly inflated.

No he didn't. People who dislocate knees don't fight hard for another two rounds, walk down rings steps and all the way back to their dressing rooms unassisted.

Marquez for sure

Juan Diaz for sure

David Diaz for sure (unless he has retired after the beating he took by Pacquiao)

Julio Diaz - isn't he going to be a Light Welter from now on?

Valero - for sure

Romanov - not show sure, he's just beaten guys at Khan's level so far.

Guzman - yep, for sure (although never sure what weight he is settling at).

Casamayor - yep

Kastidis - I disagree, man held a WBO interim bauble beating Earl (Khan disposed of Earl in a round) and has lost every time he has stepped up.

Campbell - Light Welter.

I'd rank Richard Abril above Prescott as well. . .
