    Beterbeiv destroys the number 7 in just over a round and they still leave him out!

    the same guy that the ring champion took 7 rounds to get rid of and still couldn't knock him down

    the same guy that the ring number 3 lost a reasonably decision too

    instead they have moved Nadjib Mohammedi into the top 10 a guy who has done very little and gets easily beat every time he steps up

    you could argue that Beterbiev has a better win thank Fonfara,Mohammedi,Alvarez,Chilemba,Shumenov all guys on the list

    they even still have Chad Dawson at number 5!

    And Campillo is no where to be seen even after his destruction of highly touted prospect Thomas Williams Jr. But you can bet your life that if williams had done to Campillo what he did too him they would find a spot for him

    the ring ratings mean nothing what so ever

    I kinda agree he's not in the top 10 yet because of one single destruction.
    But I do agree with your sentiment that the ring ratings are clearly shaped towards GBP and US fighters. If He was called Antoine Butler instead and a GB prospect he would have jumped to number 5 or 6 after that display.

    He will be in soon enough though.

    he deserves to be in there ahead of Mohammedi ffs though:rofl

    the transnational rankings are way better
    1.Bernard Hopkins 55-6-2 (32)USA
    2.Sergey Kovalev25-0-1 (23)RUS
    3.Jean Pascal29-2-1 (17)CAN
    4.Andrzej Fonfara25-3-0 (15)POL
    5.Juergen Braehmer44-2-0 (32)GER
    6.Beibut Shumenov14-2-0 (9)KAZ
    7.Isaac Chilemba23-2-2 (10)RSA
    8.Eleider Alvarez15-0-0 (8)COL
    9.Gabriel Campillo24-6-1 (11)ESP
    10 Artur Beterbiev - 6(6)- 0 - 0

    any top 10 without Campillo is garbage

    it seems that any fighter that loses to an american seems to keep a good ranking with the ring to prop there guys up. But losing to a fighter not in there click mean the fighter that lost is banished from the top ten and the fighter that won doesn't get in either

    While I'd put him in now, I'd wager that BeterBeastev's in the first time someone in the bottom half of the rankings gets beat.

    That surprises me. The way he demolished a guy the had at #7 (?) made me think he'd at least make number 10. One more decent win will get him there I dare say.

    Ring have totally thrown away the "bible of boxing" tag. If they were what they used to be they'd be raving about Kosei Tanaka. Beterbiev missing is odd considering he's based in Canada

    I think it's a bit harsh not to include Dawson at all.

    He did beat their #1 not all that long ago.

    Uh, didn't that just happen the other day? How often do they update their rankings? How recent are the rankings you're lambasting? Are you sure they weren't last updated before last Saturday?

    They have updated them because Drozd has moved above Wlod at Cruiser.

    He's not. He's fight at 175 this weekend. His last fight I think both fighters just failed to make weight (or didn't really bother trying).
