    Fair post. Do you know if Kessler can be ranked by the WBO while being the WBC Emeritus champion?

    I am 99% sure that Kessler will be WBO mando. Why else would Sauerland pay them sanctioning fee for the utterly worthless belt that was on the line in the Brouadla fight?

    Also note that the no.1 currntly is another Sauerland fighter: Arthur Abraham.

    If I were Abraham, I'd be pissed to see Kessler pass before me. Stieglitz has the only belt Arthur can take at SMW. Winning against the 5th fighter of the division usually doesn't make a boxer the mandatory.

    Pissed to see Kessler pass before Abraham? What has Arthur done to be ranked #1 in any organisation? :think

    Kessler needs six to seven more cab drivers first.

    I dont know. Kessler is infinetely more worthy than AA. Making him no.1 after 3 straight losses makes no sense at all.

    Besides I dont think AA should have such a top fight yet. He needs at least one confidencebuilder and has o make a decision wheter to campaign at 168 or drop down to 160 again.

    He could have a change of heart, but after his fight with Ward he said he will stay at 168.

    Pavlik is not 1-3 in his last 4 fights either. But truth be told, Pavlik should be nowhere near ranked #1 in any organisation either.

    Kesslers actually coming off wins.

    :good

    So you can fully understand why I don't understand the notion of Abraham being pissed Kessler is ranked ahead of him, right? :good

    Of course and it's why I was giving you another example and that I stop trying to understand all these rankings.
