Good lost. Khan too high and Afolabi has retired. Well done on moving Murray

Probably have Flanagan and Liam Smith higher, but understand any argument about he opposition they have faced apart from that good list

Would have Murray below Haskins in that list personally but decent effort, Donkey

Has Eubank really done anything to move up?

I'm reluctant to move Khan lower until those below him get a big win.
His overall record is far superior to the top 10 ranked fighters below him.

I'll move him back up as soon as he gives me the chance.

His record of getting ktfo and folding like a cheap deck chair is superior....

Haskins has not been impressive recently.
He does not deserve to be above Murray.

Groves should not be top 10 most of the top 22 have done more or deserve to be higher than him...

Martin Murray and Tony Bellew exactly where they deserve to be
And all is right in the world!

Is it fair to suggest that you were over-rating Murray?

Groves, who is not even the best super middle in the UK, gets catapulted into your top 10 after beating a career-middleweight who has incidentally also never won a world title?
And yet there are numerous world title holders and former champions.. Below him.
If he was unbeaten and in the ascendancy I could probably see your point. But he has been stopped twice and dropped by a weak champion in another loss in the last couple of years or so.
He doesn't even a body of work or a list of previous achievements to bolster his position.

He defended his British title. Maybe I was too generous.
His close loss to Saunders is getting towards two years ago now, so I should give him less credit for that in the future.

When you fight the best sometimes you get beat.
Khan deserves respect.

Nah! He got smacked around! I'll reserve my respect for someone more deserving!

Well Liam will be top 5 if he somehow wins his next fight.
