    I know Mckenzie was outboxed second time around by bellew but for me he has improved since then he looked good against Dodson and enzo farce

    I'm not naive enough to think he will ever be up in the rankings,he is a domestic fighter but be is a supremely strong,heavy handed dangerous opponent and I would give him a punchers chance against any ranked 10-15

    Bellew deserves at least a joint 15th with Chilemba.

    Neither Bute or Grachaev should be on that list, I'd put Bellew in at around 13/14 with Chilemba just above him.

    Agree with the above about Kolarov, he shouldn't be that high based on the win over Campillo. I'd drop him below Clev & Shumenov

    ****ing hell. Your probably one of those people that thinks there should be no medals at sports day.

    Bellew is 16th. He is below Chilemba as 90% of people think Chilemba won that fight.

    Does anyone know how to start a poll??

    Granchev just beat Zsolt Erdei. Bute beat Granchev convincingly. There rankings are fair.

    He was fighting Dodson & Enzo!!

    People forget how chinny Ovil McEnzie is. Also been outboxed with ease a number of times.

    I think the chilemba above bellew call is good as you are taking public opinion when doing these rankings as well
    I dont like restrictive rankings where so and so beat someone who beat someone.Also bad points decisions alter rankings hugely
    Add in their records are pretty similar quality and its a fair assessment

    Performance outweighs result.

    For example Eddie Chambers is still ranked at HW and Adameck is not.

    :lol:

    I thought a draw was a fair result in a poor fight. Bellew holds the Commonwealth and British titles as well as the WBC silver title.

    Chilemba didn't do enough to win the fight and neither did Bellew.
