Chaps,

Name your top 10 P4P Australian boxers. I don't have a great deal of knowledge about you guys down there these days, so drop some knowledge on me.

Admittedly only going from his last fight but Dib seems very high on these lists. Dib from the Gradovich fight vs Selby is an easy win for Selby IMO.

He'd only just scrape into my top 10.
He's a bit overrated IMO.

There are superior fighters around than Dib, granted. But his world ranking is superior to most other Aussies.
Hooper is a sublime talent. Rumour has it Hooper will be joining a sparring camp with Berridge and Capparello within a month as all 3 prepare for there next fights. I wouldn't mind being a fly on the wall watching that sparring.
That's absolutely perfect if so. Hooper is the future of Aussie boxing for mine. The kid has all the skills to go all the way if he can keep dedicated. Up to him. I see on boxrec he's listed to fight Togasilimai Letoa on Fox. Great fight for him. Letoa is tough as nails and was ranked in the top 15 of the WBA a year ago when he knocked Manny Vlamis silly. Will be keen to see how Hooper fares.

..i think Hooper might be the goods but will be hard pressed to gain backers if he continues to go around spitting in coppers faces..:verysad
I agree and from what I've read online he's pulled his head in. Apparently he lost his brother around that time. Certainly doesn't excuse anything but if he turns the corner he's got the talent to go all the way.

..yeah mate..i agree..I've heard that he's abit of a loose wheel but hopefully he realises the talent he possesses and puts this little indescretion behind him..
:good
No love for Chris Johns? Got to NO.1 on every list.
..yes..that's a travisty..we have a future Hall of Famer within our midist and we don't hear boo about him..a cryin' shame..:verysad

They don't grow on trees, but I reckon he needs a Johnny Lewis in his life. Jeff Fenech would certainly have lived a very different life with different priorities if the second-father-like Lewis hadn't entered his life when he did.
1. Chris John
2. Daniel Geale
3. Vic Darchinyan
4. Sakio Bika
5. Danny Green
6. Sam Soliman
7.Billy Dib
8. Anthony Mundine
9. Will Tomlinson
10. Wale Omotoso
..maybe..:huh

Not at all well as it turns out.
It would be an interesting task to re-assess the Australia P4P top 10 now.

Two years ago I had it >>>

1. Daniel Geale
2. Vic Darchinyan
3. Sakio Bika
4. Billy Dib
5. Danny Green
6. Sam Soliman
7. Anthony Mundine
8. Will Tomlinson
9. Wale Omotoso
10. Les Sherrington


Looking at things now >>>

Lucas Browne has to be number 1 - but unfortunately he also has an asterix next to his name.

Jeff Horn and Zac Dunn are on the way up and would have to be in the top 10 now.

Many of the others in my top 10 of two years ago have either treaded water or gone backwards. The question is who replaces them? Caparello? Aziz? Ogilvie? Jerkic? Amonsot?
