    How is Wlad not Champion? He beat the #1(or 2 man) twice since his brother retired. What more does it take?

    Bit too hipster-ish to keep the champ slot vacant...

    What have Perez and Cunningham done to be ahead?

    Perez has lost to Jennings and, on most scorecards, to Takam. He beat Mago before that who was a little bit less relevant than Price at the time.

    Cunningham lost to Adamek, got knocked out by Fury, and has since beaten Mansour who was more lightly regarded than Solis or Price.

    Not go 3-3 in their last six.

    Speaking for myself, not for everyone else that disagrees.

    Honestly Rico, if i have to chose between your weird obsession with running down British fighters and the rankings of Boxing Monthly, Fightnews, Ring and TBRB, i don't really have to think for very long before I pick the latter.

    I think Kovalev and Beterbiev could take half of that list. The division is in an awful state.

    Both of these chumps drain themselves so that they wont by flattened by the cats at 200lbs. Smh ... both like to callout smaller fighters. They got no chance vs a top 10 heavy.:lol:

    Fury above Wilder is mental.

    Besides Wlad, Povetkin, Wilder and Fury, there's not much.

    Excellent list. I would flip flop Glazkov and Jennings. And Perez would be iffy to make my list otherwise great list.
