I think Broner is doing the laughing now.

Yes Khan at #5 was clearly off. Read my analysis between Froch and Bute and I clearly stated Bute had fought no one and that Froch fought the very best and was on a another level. I did a recap after this list and stated Froch to be more than I anticipated, before Bute. You can check the archives for the write-up as I said Bute telegraphs his punches and any decent professional should wipe-the-floor with him (Froch included). Yes I had Khan at #5, and after Peterson I felt it was no fluke and he was more hype, but I clearly over-rated him. Bute I over-rated but clearly adjusted within a few weeks later after more video replay. Thanks for the input Papa!
