    How bout that RingTV actually making a good and imo needed change in their rankings policy.

    Good move by them. The Ring should not count gift decisions as wins and a fighter who receives a gift decision should not be moved up in the rankings but should be moved down as if the judges got the decision correct.


    Also,Ring should tell clearly shitty fighters like Denis Boytsov to **** off because he didnt beat anyone good and doesn't deserve to be in the top 10.

    The decision to drop Peterson elevates Nos. 2 and 3 junior welterweights Amir Khan and Danny Garcia to Nos. 1 and 2. Thus, their fight on Saturday in Las Vegas will be for THE RING 140-pound championship.

    Beat my by a few minutes. rorschach51 ole buddy. Read what ya post. :lol:

    Well, that was a poorly formatted article and you didn't write it. Web software takes out tabs and spaces automatically now days to save space. Now, the guys that don't seem to read what they actually wrote? They are the ones that look foolish. :lol:
