CRUISERWEIGHT RANKINGS-3.september.

least stacked division in boxing today

 

WBC rankings suck

1. YPH
2. Huck
3. Lebedev
4. Afolabi
5. Wlod
6. Jones
7. Chakkiev
8. Masternek
9. Kayode
10. Alekseev

 

Most of the top guys have competitive, entertaining fights between each other. Although Cunningham has moved up to heavyweight YPH, Huck, Lebedev, Afolabi & Wlod are a good top 5.

Masternek & Chakkiev will be challenging for titles soon & there are plenty of promising prospects coming up, its one of the better divisions imo

 

This division is DOMINATED by Europeans, that's what I think.

 

all you need to see is RJJ on the list to know it is a complete joke

 

Is that Roy Jones JR:yikes? They surely dindt see his last fight against a late substitute LHW with 4 ko's in 17 fights knocking him down.

 

We see Roy Jones getting the roll-out for his shot at Wlod. Interesting to see Mormeck on the list too. RJJ vrs. Mormeck in Paris as an eliminator?

The WBC title at cruiser is not the 'champ'. It's a major/minor belt, without a lineage, shaped more by politics then by a dominant champion.

Check out the WBC Cruiser lineage

After Haye retired, it was Fragomeni vrs. Kraj for the title. In his 2nd defense, Fragomeni lost to Erdei. Then it was Frago vrs. Wlod for the vacant title. Since then Wlod hasn't beaten any titlists and should have lost to Palacios.

Now they are making Wlod fight Palacios before he gets to cash in vrs. RJJ or Tarver or whoever.

The top cruisers right now are YPH, Huck and Lebedev. These 3 are active, fight good competition, etc. And now Chambers will be a factor.

 

Guillermo Jones he will be on about.

 

v. sad.

 

Should be:

1. Dennis Lebedev
2. Lateef Kayode
3. Ola Afolabi
4. Mateusz Masternak
5. BJ Flores
6. Alexander Alexeev
7. Dmymto Kucher
8. Danny Green
9. Rakhim Chakhkiev
10.Pawel Kolodziej
