6th or 7th, maybe even a little higher - just because you beat a boxer who is in, lets say 2nd spot, it doesn't mean that you instantly replace them in that spot. :yep
ESB Champ: Pacquiao 1. Bradley 2. Hatton 3. Urango 4. Witter 5. Holt 6. Maidana 7. Bailey 8. Khan 9. Forgot his name (the guy Witters fighting) 10. Kotelnick
So why is Adamek ESB champ all of a sudden then:huh? 3 fights at cruiser- 2 against bums- one of which was ducking Enzo!:blood
And neither is Kotelnik:blood:yep. Who has Bailey beat who is better than Kotelnik? Urango is justified. I've only seen Banks the once on a German undercard but that was enough to put me off.
TBH I only did some immediate changes to the list - like Campbell and Khan. I haven't done any of the smaller changes that may be needed. I will look into Bailey :good
I just noticed a glaring ommission from the top 3. Johno Banks: Cruiserweight ESB Champ: Tomasz Adamek 1. Steve Cunningham 2. Guillermo Jones 3. Giacobbe Fragomeni 4. Marco Huck 5. Victor Emilio Ramirez 6. Krzysztof Wlodarczyk 7. Grigory Drozd 8. BJ Flores 9. Ola Afolabi 10. Troy Ross I know I'm being a ***** but I am just trying to keep this thing as fair as possible.
Losfer youmake good points about Bailey but i stand by my list Im with Losfer on Adamek it should be vacant
Having done a bit of research, I feel Bailey shouldn't be in really - he beat a shot Corley, decent opponent in Figueroa, and lost to Ngoudjo in his last 5 fights. I think Peterson should be added to the list.
:shock:YOU BOXREC'D HIM! We got two onboard over Adamek now, Kos. You should join in becuase then we'll only need two more:yep:good. I agree on Peterson but Khan should replace Bailey, IMO.
Banks would have, in all probability, been in the top 10 before the Adamek fight. Banks fights at heavy now anyway D If you want me to make the title vacant, I will.
It has to be a group agreement. Not all of us agreed on Adamek in the first place. When I quoted Rob I was quoting the majority of what he said when I agreed.
