    I think Erdei at number 2 in LHW is ridiculous and Amir Kahn is ranked too high at lightweight after being still largely unprover, other wise pretty good.
    I didn't knowKahnwas ranked by all the organisations though.

    I don't think he merits it being he's faced pretty average competition since becoming champion compared to other fighters.
    Clinton Woods and Chad Dawson have both faced better opposition whilst looking more impressive in doing so.
    H2H against most of the top ten i'dhave him losing, the only reason he is up anywhere near there is the WBO belt.

    I rather refer to FightNews rankings than Ring Mag or BoxRec...

    Looks pretty forgiving - one of the better ones - needless to say that it is better than Ring.

    Where is the P4P list? It is such a list that seperates the true analysts from the bandwagoneering hypetrain analyst wannabees.

    Robert Guerrero should be #2 instead of 3

    I have always thought that Fightnews.com does a pretty good job with its rankings.

    I use that rankings2 page all the time

    The fightnews rankings are decent but not better most other people's rankings
