    Why? Give me five names on Diaconu's CV that are better than Clinton's...

    Junior Witter has completely gone off the Light-Welter list and he has a better resume than at least half of the fighters in the top 10. Recent fights play a bigger part than a whole body of results, Woods was outclassed and pretty much beaten up by Tarver and while he came back well from this fight, that one fight against Tarver is very detrimental to his rankings right now due to the manner in which he lost.

    the recent form is most important in rankings.

    The Tarver loss is a huge negative for woods but he then beat a contender in Muriqi so hes definitly top 10. Diaconu was a champ (ABC title though) and beat a top 10 guy to get it but lost it to a SMW.

    So there about even IMO

    So by your own definition, Woods should be above on recent form as well then. Diaconu was outclassed by as SMW and Woods had a very solid win against Muriqi.

    yeh losfer so to retract but I tend to agree Woods below for now.

    Woods lost to Tarver big, who lost twice to Dawson big.

    Diacanou lost a close fight to Pascal.

    look if woods beats cloud next week he goes top 5 again. if he looses he is out of the top 10 and cloud will go top 5 depending on performance.

    If we're gonna think like that then RJJ should be above Pascal at 175. He shouldn't be as low as he is after the Sheika and Lacy wins.

    first off all thats a pretty rude thing to say.

    my point is that guys like Choi and Tony Salam are eligable to fight for british titles, sosnowski is not, therefore should not be ranked!!

    Those opponents were more than likely outside of the top 20. Pascal beat a legitimate top 5 opponent in the division.

    :lol::patschI have come to the realisation that you've also changed everything else that everyone else thought straight away (with sometimes only one person agreeing) but anything I mention is dismissed out of hand.

    Good point, otherwise we should have Clottey and Valuev in the British rankings. It won't end unless a line is drawn, Pater.

    WTF are you talking about - look back through the thread, people were asking for the Ola and Guzman changes, I agreed with them so I made the change.

    I don't agree with the point your making and no-one else has yet, TBH I don't know why so much fuss is getting made over moving someone above someone who is only one place ahead of them, when they will automatically be moved in a few days time...
