    Boxrec ratings have always been crap.
    Their computer raking algoritm is so flawed that they often need to correct it manually

    Fighting for a title shouldn't automatically mean you're above someone who hasn't.

    Parker having wins over Hughie Fury, Takam, Ruiz & going the distance with Joshua>>>>>>>> Whyte/Miller's resume.

    Even Luis Ortiz (6) is ranked above Parker:risas3::risas3:

    Boxrec had a 44 year old Guillermo Jones in the heavyweight top 15 for 12 months after getting a MD over Garret Wilson... go figure.

    Following boxing on off since 2006 hardcore since 2009. Boxed am before I followed boxing.

    I have a 2009 account on boxrec & everytime I check on a fighter's stats boxrec keeps redirecting me to some spam Amazon/Walmart Gift card Ad.
    I'm about done with boxrec

    boxrec may be flawed but is excellent compared to the WBA's heavyweight rankings

    Fres Oquendo #2
    Trevor Bryan #5
    BJ Flores #6 (yes that's the same fat cruiserweight Bellew beat up in a few rounds). Apparently he's the 6th best HW in the world.

    I mean just

    Canelo is ranked over Golovkin despite clearly losing to him and having 2 MW fights at 155 lb. catchweights.
