    superfeatherweight changes...i reckon just swap klassen and guerrero. i don't think he should drop below roman martinez yet. not a very strong division is it...

    I say the result was close enough for Malignaggi to remain in the top ten. That said, what are we doing with Diaz? He technically won a fight within the 140 limit:think. Malignaggi 10th and Diaz 9th with Kotelnik dropping out? In fact, maybe Diaz should be above Peterson if we're now going to consider him a LWW?:think:good

    Yeah, Diaz is a light-welter now based on how we rank fighters (i.e last weight they fight at, that is the weight division they are ranked in) :good

    Although I agree with you in thinking Paulie won, we've gotta be fair in the rankings, mate. Remember Gevor? A win, however controversial, is still a win in the record books.

    It is not a corruption when others think the other guy won the fight. You might have a case if everyone though Malignaggi won, but that is not the case.

    Unless its a real shocker (which Paulie-Diaz wasn't) you have to go with the official decision. Otherwise you're just creating a rod for your own back over future close decisions.

    I'd like to praise your efforts. First time I've really checked the full rankings in a while and I endorse the vast majority of it.

    The p4p list gets a bit nutty with names like Juan Manuel Lopez and Hozumi Hasegawa (as much as I love the guy), and I think Calderon is really slipping and I don't see him as top 10 quality right now. On the positive side the top half is good, and I like having the balls to include a heavy, I think he deserves it.

    However, the divisional rankings are excellent without exceptions.
