    Baloyi, Fana, Klassen could have been ranked ahead of Linares/Salgado as well. Salgado beat a hyped belt holder, that's it. Like I said, it's debatable as to who is number 1 in the division, but you can't claim that Uchiyama is the definite number 1 at super featherweight.

    Soto and Guerrero were both ranked at SFW at the time of Linares' loss to Salgado.

    but never had another fight there so by the time Salgado faced Uchyama Salgado was No.1 by default

    perhaps but I don't think so. I am not saying he is defo number 1 but he is who i rank at number 1.

    Fana has never succesfully defended a title belt. Burns and Uchyama have. I would say Salgado and Martinez are the same level. Uchyama has made 2 succesful defences of his title, both by KO and been impressive. Burns looked ok agaisnt a worse opponent.

    ****ing hell as well Kos if theres anyone i should count on to support the Japs it should be you.

    you do see my point of Burns beat Fana it be unfair to claim him as the Champion.?

    I wonder if Adam Smith will apologise for the language of Mark Burdis after he announces the opponents name.....

    Please welcome your challenger, Terdsak......

    :lol: Uchiyama is my fave fighter currently as well :yep

    Yes, if Burns beat Fana it would be unfair, as Uchiyama-Solis is the fight to determine who is number 1 in the division IMO.

    The top 2 in the Ring Ratings will change anyway depending on the result of Solis-Uchiyama....or they should do anyway.

    You'd support Anthony Small if he came from Japan, Kos...

    :nono

    Don't like Koki Kameda, who is Japan's answer to Small (out of the ring, I mean). But, it's hard not to dislike a fighter from Japan, as I can't really tell what their personalities are like and most of them are good technical boxers, which I appreciate.

    I am worried, his biggest test to date.
