    Just goes to show that most ranking systems are trash.

    I think it's more 'Anthony Joshua privilege' than anything else.

    Joshua is currently rated #1 by the WBO. Usyk didn't deliver that big 3 percent cut against Dubois that the WBO was used to with Joshua.

    That's several million less in sanctioning fee money coming in this year for the WBO.

    Joshua and Anderson could now fight for a vacant WBO belt should the WBO get a wild hair. Or at least a final eliminator.

    Some large sums of money are being exchanged for Anderson. Title shot incoming?

    Meh, Arum is just leveraging his connection to Warren with the WBO. It corrupt, but it's nothing new for them

    August 2020 , Daniel Dubois was WBO #3

    Similar to Dubois. It's complete BS, but at least this probably means he's got a big fight coming?

    These organizations are not beholden to reason or fairness or logic (exceptions obviously, see Rocchigiani, Graciano). So do not expect any of the above until someone cleans them up or holds them accountable
