    The rankings are an absolute load of nonsense.

    Pretty much all of them.

    It makes me smile that Gary Lockett, (for instance only) can be ranked No. 1 by the WBO, yet 15 by the WBC!

    We all know that Frank Warren has caught the President of the WBO in a compromising position, snorting cocaine or shagging a shemale, but surely this is ridiculous.

    Amazing that better fighters than some of those guys are not in the list and the fact that certain guys appear at all if bad. The like of Paul Smith, Kevin Mitchell and Anthony Small should be no way near the world rankings.

    Hatton is ranked 6 by the IBF, yet Mitchell is ranked 4, albeit in different weight classes.

    So does this mean that the IBF think that Kev is better than Ricky P4P?

    He is good but how does he deserve to be ranked. He has only beaten Carl Johanesson, hardly elite competition.

    I'm not sure, but I'm going for a sulk, before trashing the Football League offices - they have really done us over today!

    Oh well, we can really shove it up them by winning at Wembley, and refusing to collect the trophy. That's what I'd ****ing do!
