    Yes, no clear favorite, and I don't think Beterbiev would be the heavy favorite either. If you think this is not doable, it's alright, just wanted to explain it further.

    Bookies always make rankings better than organizations or boxrec, simply because that were there money is, and were their business is, and they cannot afford to put Braehmer higher than Beterbiev because the'll lose a lot of money and go bankrupt. So going by the odds that bokies list is better but cant do it since a lot of fights are not in there. Boxrec is not good for something like that.
    For example at SMW Abraham is #2 and Bute is not even listed, his is listed #27 at LHW. So what you do ? You make Abraham Huge Favorite ? When normally at bookies Bute would be favorite or slight favorite.

    With the rankings representing correctly the situation you would expect #27 to not even be a decent challenge for #2.
    And you realize I have to do all these comparisons right? Who should be favorite, by what margin in rankings should one change from favorite to heavy favorite etc.

    It will create to much controversy and lot of aditional work, and I can't do it right now. But I will keep it in mind, see if can be simplified somehow.

    It's just to much for me as you present it. I like the concept, but the one we got right now it's not that bad either. It doesn't need immediate change.
