    It seems very random.

    I cannot believe it is anything other than a joke.

    Some Middleweights I would consider placing higher than Strum and Abraham:

    Paul Pender, Thomas Hearns, Rocky Graziano, Randy Turpin, Mike McCallum, Al McCoy, Fred Apostoli, Sambu Kalambay, Tiger Flowers, Rodrigo Valdez, Dick Tiger, Bob Fitzsimmons, James Toney, Michael Nunn, Jack 'Twin' Sullivan, Mike O'Dowd, Jake LaMotta, Freddie Steele, Marcel Thil, Gorilla Jones, Sammy Langford, Emile Griffith, Joey Giardello, Kid McCoy, Nino Benvenuti, Tony Zale, Marcel Cerdan, Roy Jones, Jack Dempsey, Mickey Walker and Charley Burley...

    And that is only looking at Champs and obvious names, there are arguably a similar number of contenders from the last 130 years who also have a chance of being rated higher.

    These ranking confirm what a historic event AA v Strum would have been...

    You are one of the few capable of making a worst list than that.

    I'm not talking about recent am I? More historical. Which is what this thread is about mate.

    Awfu list. I'd have thought they were boxrec's ratings if not told otherwise.Their explanation for ranking Abraham is laughable...his willingless to fight Kingsley Ikeke?
