    It's amazing how different a list of fighters ranked purely on merit - put together by a bunch of boxing fans on an internet forum creating the list for free, I'll add - is to the crap churned out monthy by corrupted bigwigs at the various alphabet HQs. It's a complete mess when you think about it:lol:. Anyone see the interview that Sillyman did with BN a few weeks ago when he said that mini-Chvez was ranked purely on being able to sell tickets?:-(

    EDIT: Double post:patsch. Ah well, I'll just make a point of saying that they are all as bad as one-another. The IBF will soon be introducing 'interim' joke titles as well:-(.

    The Ring ratings and champions are USUALLY pretty solid. The whole GoldenBoy/ Ring conspiracy theory isn't really founded in fact (if thats what you're talking about!!).

    Ignore them and they might go away. In boxing the only credability is that bestowed on them.

    They are all ****!


    Just as promoters and the TV execs start getting their act together and start moving in the right direction for the sport the Governing Bodies decide to become even shitter and **** the sport and their belts credibility. For me they are still important but they really need to up their game and see the light.
