    How about this for a legend?:D

    A) Calzaghe
    B) Kessler
    D) Inkin
    C) Bute
    E) Mundine.

    Or is it:

    A) Kessler
    B) Calzaghe
    D) Inkin
    C) Bute
    E) Mundine.??

    Hang on! Bute cannot be C, even though he would have a higher chance against Calzaghe than against Kessler! Dow! All my hard work - in vain! :(

    As the ratings commitee, I would've ranked whoever paid me the most first at the top of my rankings. A,B,C,D,E could've beaten F, but hey, guess who my number one contender is?

    Or am I just too cynical?

    SMW is impossible for your thesis. As it is, none of the others are even remotely a threat to the 2 top dogs.

    1) Kessler(Will not lose to anyone).
    2) JC(Will lose to Kessler, and maybe Mundine in the future).
    3) Mundine.(Might lose to Inkin. Might make a threat to JC).
    4) Bute. (Might beat Inkin, but will lose to the 3 above.)
    5) Inkin. (life and death fight with Bute, which he will lose, and he might even pull an upset against Mundine).

    But who knows:yep

    You're explanation works for you. Yet you introduced a variable (Whomever's law) and didn't let anyone else know it was in play.

    Occam's razor?

    Well, doesn't that make perfect sense though? Why complicate matters unnecessarily?

    Because matters get complicated. But it was your exercise.

    Depends on who keeps evolving the most. TBH none of what I wrote should be taken serious, though.

    I am not sure what you mean, mate!

    Anyway, if someone can provide a more sensible, reasoned solution to the problem I set out, I will be pleased to see it! Let's have it!

    I think Mundine is over the hill, whereas Bute is up and coming.

    Also, I take everything YOU say VERY seriously!:bart

    He means that reality is more complicated than a mathematical thesis such as yours.

    As I have stated, alot of parameters come into play other than who beats who.

    Of course! Obviously!:good

    It's funny, people get on my back for not making it complicated enough, after complaining it was too complicated in the first place!:yep
