    Here are the rankings of the Brits on the list:

    Khan - 27
    Froch - 29
    Haye - 56
    Rhodes - 82
    Cleverly - 86
    Burns - 97

    Thoughts??? The list does seem a bit pro American IMO

    Khan is godly.

    The Ring mag is ******ed in general.

    Are we allowed to see a link to the rest of the list so we can see who made up the other places?


    Wow just read the list......those folk at the Ring mag deserve credit for being dumb. Terrible list.

    I'd swap Khan and Froch around. The Cobra for me has had better wins so far.

    "12. CELESTINO CABALLERO

    Last Year's Ranking: 8

    Status Report: By the time you read this, Caballero will almost certainly have punched the living daylights out of poor Jason Litzau, who is a nice kid with a good story but with neither the chin nor the smarts to last a full 36 minutes with a killer like Caballero. It will be Caballero's second win of 2010; his pummeling of tough Daud Yordan (W12) had the HBO broadcast team crying for the referee to stop it shortly after the playing of the national anthems. The guy's a beast. We just wish he'd fight a little more frequently.

    Future: There was some talk a while back about Caballero facing Juan Manuel Lopez or Yuriorkis Gamboa. Forget about it. He's too dangerous. We'd be almost as happy to see him against Orlando Salido or Daniel Ponce de Leon."

    :huh:lol:

    I think Khan, Froch and Haye should be ranked a bit higher, not alot but more so with Haye. Rhodes and Clev (not yet) arent top 100 IMO. Burns deserved to sneak in.

    D Mac must have posted it from the magazine. The online one is updated to include recent results. Still ****.

    Pascal is top 15 after his draw with Hopkins :patsch

    Andre Ward's top twenty isn't he? Completely undeserved for a single win over Kessler - which is pretty much all he's got. There's no real criteria for those lists.

    Ryan Rhodes?? Seriously, come on, who's he beaten this time out to make him worthy, apart from jamie Moore and that was about 3 fights ago.

    Also froch should be above khan, no questions. The fact that khan is GB and fights in the US is what's getting him higher here IMO

    Ward's beaten Green, Miranda and Bika as well in his last 5 fights. I know they're not the greatest but I dont think its an outrage if he's in the current top 20, even if he's maybe there on potential.

    Hard to make lists like this
