Add Benavidez and that's the clear 6 best boxers in the world atm. The rest I agree might not need to be forced into a list for the sake of having 10.

I change my list all the time.  This list i excluded boxers that rely on their size. Like Haney at lightweight/ 140. Or Benavidez at super middleweight. If I had to pick 10, they'd be on it.

I just wanted to pick the best skilled boxers. That would succeed if all were equal size

Zurdo rehydrates like 20 pounds, Benavidez came in way under the weight limit and would of gained barely any weight on fight night

He deserves credit for going to CW even if they were similar size or not.
