    Pacquiao got the 147 belt at 145 and 154 belt at 150, I refuse to be outraged

    Rankings don't mean ****. No one looks at rankings unless you're talking pound for pound.

    That's exactly it.Rankings have lost major credibility,the little they had left.

    Even p4p rankings,it's a popularity contest.

    They really think Khan's gonna win this tourament then make a Mayweather fight

    This is why i hate when people bring up statistics like 'Blah Blah is ranked number 7 by the ibf' it doesn't mean ****
    If Floyd fought Khan they would be like 'Khan is ranked 2nd at welterweight' to hype up the fight when he hasnt even fought at the weight
