Lightweights (135, 130)
1. Floyd Mayweather Jr. (29-0). Could face Leo Dorin in spring unification fight. Next: TBA.
2. Acelino "Popo" Freitas (32-0). Let's hope Gabe Ruelas doesn't get hurt in this epic mismatch. Shame on Showtime. Next: March 15 vs. Ruelas.
3. Jose Luis Castillo (46-6-1). Might move up to 140 to meet Antonio Diaz on spring Top Rank PPV. Wear a raincoat because it could be a bloodbath. Next: TBA.
4. Joel Casamayor (28-1). To nobody's surprise, destroyed sparring partner Yoni Vargas in awful mismatch. Next: Jan. 25 vs. Nate Campbell.
5. Stevie Johnston (34-2-1). Jan. 3 fight fell through so he just sits and continues to die on the vine. Next: TBA.
6. Paul Spadafora (36-0). Got better of Mayweather in well-publicized sparring session, but a real fight would be another story. Next: TBA.
7. Juan Lazcano (31-2-1). Headlines HBO Latino's new series next month. Next: Feb. 13 vs. Courtney Burton.
8. Jesus Chavez (38-2). Thai champ Sirimongkol Singmanassuk probably will fight Chavez in the USA this spring. Next: TBA.
9. Artur Grigorian (35-0). Obviously honoring his New Year's resolution to keep fighting stooges. Next: Jan. 18 vs. Mat Zegan.
10. Phillip N'dou (29-1). South African KO artist must raise competition level to really make an impact. Next: TBA.
Others: Leo Dorin, Steve Forbes, Cassius Baloyi.
