    EDIT: Thanks.

    Brandon Rios #11 at WW......?! He isn't top 30.

    EDIT: I'll try to go through and give some other opinions. Most of the rankings seem largely agreeable or only a position or two off from my own opinion.

    Beat Alvarado at WW when Alvarado was ranked 12 and beat Diego Chavez (who drew with Thurman) all this year, lost wide on points to Pacman though. I think he is much better than 30 subjectively. With a top 100 and 17 divisions you will find plenty you won't agree with. I don't agree with every Trans-National ranking but overall I would still say their rankings were pretty good.

    His entire WW career:

    2013- L UD12 Manny Pacquiao
    2014- W DQ8 Diego Chaves
    2014- W RTD3 Mike Alvarado III

    He lost every minute of every round against Pac in his debut. He beat Chaves by a sketchy DQ in a dirty fight that he was losing before the ref intervened. And Mike Alvarado had lost 3 of his last 4 including almost every single round against Marquez, which was his only ever fight at WW going into the third Rios fight.

    I strongly disagree with you. He is clearly not in the top 20 at WW for me.

    You think our website is poor? We created the ratings in 1991.

    It's not horrible. I like the format of being able to look at everything.

    Do you guys use a computer formula or just human opinions?

    It is based on a formula, no human opinion other than what division to rank a fighter in, though we will over-ride the fight result if enough of the press scored the fight differently.

    We produced these ratings for the IBO until last year until we went back independent.

    Ah, nice.

    So if they move up or down in weight, their ranking at the new weight is just a cumulative score of their whole career or are all previous fights outside the new division treated as null?

    Glazkov #3 at heavyweight. Right.

    Andre Ward still #1 at super middleweight.

    Cotto above Golovkin at middleweight.

    Tim Bradley #3 at welterweight.

    Beating Carlos and John Molina makes Broner #4 at light welterweight?

    GTFO here with those!
