Do you disagree with something on my list?

Alex Arthur above Thompson.
Michael Hunter above Eastman and McCullough, Danny Williams above Hunter.
Froch above Pickering.

Carl Thompson's retired as well.

I agree that maybe Arthur should be above Thompson and that Hunter could well go above Eastman, McCullough and Haye.
I couldn't agree with moving Williams above Hunter though. Hunter is a European Champion whereas Williams has previously failed at European and World level.

But Hunter hasn't even fought at world level and has yet to prove that he is the best domestically while Williams has beaten both of his domestic rivals and KOed Tyson. The beating that Williams took from Klitschko I think most heavyweights would have taken. I think Vitali was a cut above the rest of the heavyweight scene so I'd rate Williams over Hunter.

I'd have Froch above Haye now, for all his faults he has beaten two guys unlucky to win European titles and if anything more likely to danger the top ten in the world than Alexander Gurov (yes, even Barney).
I'd certainly have him well above Robin Reid - he did a more convincing job over Magee than Reid did.
He's proven himself 3rd in the country (at least) at Super Middle, Haye hasn't done that at Cruiser - not beyond dispute.

It's not a bad list as far as I'm concerned...
Although Carl Thompson has retired.
And I'd have Nicky Cook top 5. ;)

Why should Calzaghe be number one?

Pretty accurate list in my view - I'd probably pop Froch up above Reid and possibly move Hunter up a place or two.
Looking further down - I think Jamie Moore and Wayne Alexander should be lower - Kev Anderson deserves to be higher and possibly Graham Earl.

I agree with all that twinkle toes. Graham Earl especially, being British/Comonwealth and beaten the #1 contender for the EBU title surely means a high positioning in the 10-20 bracket.

cos he's been a world title holder since 1997.
he's still going strong and just dominated a fellow world title holder and turned in as good a performance as anyone can remember.
as u know i rate ricky hatton more than most.
but hatton just doesn't stack up to calzaghe yet.
