I find that real strange that they've dropped him so much. He was already below Wlad. I wouldn't have changed the rankings at all after the fight.
They aren't the worst ratings. But surely Tony Thompson should be up in there. better would be the following Wlad champ 1) Vitali 2) Adamek 3) Haye 4) Chambers 5) Thompson 6) Povetkin 7) Helenius 8) Chagaev 9) Dimitrenko 10) Solis I don't deny Arreola is close to the Top 10, but he doesn't deserve to be in there. Boystov has no major wins and only a few decent ones, and to top it all off he's been more or less inactive for 2 years, so he shouldn't be ranked. I can see Pulev and/or Arreola displacing Solis and Dimitrenko if they score the right kind of wins.
Uh, actually England is a country, and Great Britain is an island. But England, Wales and Scotland are all still independent countries (in a way), united by the crown and represented internationally as one. Hence, United Kingdom. I can't get too pissy about the rankings, but it always annoys me that guys move up purely based on attrition. What has Povetkin done in the last two or three years? What has Boytsov done ever? And Dimitrenko? Seriously?
Unfortunately you are right. EU is the USSR with a human face. They have the flague, anthem, parliament, constitution, currency and want to have army.
