    I thought rooq's were pretty accurate.

    Campillo is toast as a world champion. Garay had to drop 25kgs in 25 days to make weight. He's usually an all-out puncher for the distance but he got tired too quick.

    I'd take that into account and put Campillo maybe 10. Garay might move up to cruiserweight. I like Shumenov there, even in so few fights he deserves it for beating good names.

    Here is what I am thinking for the ESB Rankings comitee;

    Antcull
    Beeston Brawler
    Dan684
    GazOC
    GPatter
    Ishy
    Jeff Thomas
    Kosaros
    Logoncount
    LHL
    LostferWords
    paddy
    robpalmer135
    rooq

    that is 14 of us at the moment. Anyone I have missed (notice i keep the sweatys away cos there so biased would have ricky burns as P4P number 1) All have well over 2500 posts and are regulars. I think we should set a rule that if 5 of agree on a change, it is made, if someone objects he needs to get more than that 5 to vote agaisnt it (we can never get all 14/15 of us about at the same time.

    Get this set as a Sticky, and then allow people to join via vote if once they have reached 1000 posts plus.

    ok. I have alreadys ent my rankings to Kosaros. So Kos if you read this, Darchinyan back to number 1, not champ, at Super Fly and someone else in at Bantam (probs Napa)


    I would fancy Aydin to beat berto if its in turkey. think of the atmosphere.

    I'd agree with Rob and put Andrade upto 5, maybe 4.

    For now, Balzsay should be above Ward and Dirrell. He's slightly more proven though Ward could rank above him due to the Miranda win.

    What do you guys think?

    You know, Taylor has only beat a shadow of Jeff Lacy at 168. He's lost to Pavlik and Froch.

    Just putting it out there...

    Agreed on both counts.

    Andrade beat solid second tier super middleweights. Yusuf Mack, Robert Stieglitz, Vitali Tsypko. Pushed Bute close, too close.

    Dirrell has done what...beat Hanshaw? He's right at the bottom for me.

    TFFP has a point, Taylor at 6 for beating a faded Lacy? :think
    Ward should be above Dirrell for now.
