Didnt the man just win the IBF title from Cloud? that means once your a world title holder doesnt matter which belt you hold the other three remaining bodies do not rank you at all in their ratings its always been this way what the **** I think at least two or three posters already pointed this **** out and you guys still dont seem to get it, this is nothing new
the ibf dose not have him or cloud in the top 10 according to the april 2013 boxing-insider that was released on march 25
wbc wba ibf all 3 dont have him ranked in the top 10 wbo has him at # 2 so take that for what its worth. wbc has him at 14 ibf got him at 11 and the wba worst of all has him at 17 so i guss this means there is add least 10 L H weights better then b hop and perhaps as many as 16 :rofl
But he won the IBF title he shouldnt be rated at all on the WBC,WBA or WBOs ratings... he is a title holder now.
B hop beat cloud on the 9th of march the April issue of boxing insider were this info came from was released march 25 and as is true with all issues of boxinginsider its release was made within its (48 hour release upon completion guarantee) with means that they had from the 10th to the 26th to update there rankings prior to release of Aprils issue so IMHO and in the opinion of boxing insider they had the Hopkins cloud fight results and still publicized there ranking without Hopkins in the top 10
That's because he won the IBF title and organizations don't rank other's champions because they have their mandatory defenses to enforce. ****ing newb kill yourself.
Hey I didn't know WBC did that. However that will probably just spiral out of control with everyone having the same rule.
