Sorry I did not get to this thread any sooner.
Winky Wright is highly skilled, but I find his bouts rather boring ... very boring, to be honest. Taylor is more impressive in terms of raw fighting. Some say Jermain was exposed by Ouma, which is untrue. Just because someone is having a hard time against someone does not mean he is exposed. It's all a matter of styles and the current situation the boxers are facing within a particular context.
My middleweight Top4 is:
Abraham
Taylor
Wright
Miranda

So you still have Abraham higher than Miranda even though Miranda was basically held up at gunpoint in that fight? Taylor looked a bit sloppy against Ouma, but I think he was playing to the hometown crowd. Also, would you put Cazaghe fifth on your list. I think Miranda had a good point that Calzaghe and Abraham HAVE to come the US to fight if they ever plan to get the recognition they deserve.

Calzaghe is a supermiddle, my friend.
Abraham was beating Miranda with a jaw that was broken twice. There will be a rematch, and Edison will be beaten again.  |

I will be very surprised if there is a rematch.
Miranda said he want the fight in the U.S. this time & there is no way Abraham is gonna do that. |
