This Is the WBA HWs Ranking. Is It a joke? Anthony Joshua Manuel Charr Trevor Bryan WBA Gold: Robert Helenius 1) Daniel Dubois (First ???????) 2) Oleksandr Usyk 3) Luis Ortiz (higher than when he was younger. Lol) 4) Andy Ruiz 5) Charles Martin 6) Michael Hunter 7) Agit Kabayel (Who?) 8) Adam Kownacki 9) Gerald Washington 10) Mark De Mori (destroyed by Haye in 2 rounds) 11) Jonnie Rice (Boxrec:14W, 6L,1D...nah) 12) Frank Sanchez 13) Zhan Kossobutskiy (Who?) 14) Mike Wilson (Who?) 15) Lener Pero (Who?) Thoughts?
The idea that you can have a top 15 plus belts and yet not have Fury, Whyte, Joyce, Parker or Wilder on that list is absolutely laughable. Regardless of where you'd personally put those guys, they certainly all belong on any sane top 15 list. Having Dubois that high up is taking a massive dump on its credibility too - an up and coming fighter with some potential yes, but he's done **** all to be sitting there.
Absolute joke ranking. And still hasn't really done anything - ridiculously overrated for how little he's accomplished. Hasn't fought in... 18 months? Since AJ has beaten only bums, the least crap of which is Gerald Washington, and lost a UD to Kownacki. Now you are really, really taking the ...
I thought Dubois and Ortiz being ranked in the top 3 was terrible but De Mori being ranked at all really takes the ****.
3/4 of their champions aren't in anyone's top 10 and somehow half the list is worse than them. Much worse.
Obviously almost the entire list is terrible but I am genuinely shocked to see Mark de Mori on that list! He has beaten nobody and has only had one bout in the last two years against a person with a 21-20 record...
Fury is the WBC champion, so that's expected (unless you mean Hughie, lol). As for the rest, don't they have some rules that if you are pursuing a title within other organizations, they don't rank you in WBA?
If you don’t know who Zhan Kossobutisky is you need to get more into boxing. That said though, yeah, the list is awful.
You guys realise you only get ranked by a governing body if you pay sanctioning fees in most cases. Joyce is paying WBO so ranked there. Dubois was paying WBO before he lost to Joyce and now pays the WBA so he miraculously finds himself on the rankings
You are doing a grave disservice to the only ranking organisation employing the latest quantum AI modelling in their systems.
