martinez has already done far more then sturm and aa, ranking fighter based on how many shitty alphabet title defences they have against no hopers is dumb as hell nevermind the rest of the stupid stuff going on with that list.
Vacant what do people think of the rings new lightweight rankings 1 Antonio DeMarco 2 Miguel Vazquez 3 Ricky Burns 4 Kevin Mitchell 5 John Murray 6 John Molina 7 Richard Abril 8 Hank Lundy 9 Gavin Rees 10 Sharif Bogere
Abril is too low, should be 3 or 4. I have Vazquez above DeMarco but it's close. Murray at 5, WTF? He should be dropped altogether.
Odd. I'm assuming Rios isn't there because he missed the weight which as it's the 2nd time on the run isn't a big issue. But Murray no.5, seriously?! He's lost his last 2 fights, both by stoppage, and he's still that high- doesn't seem right to me. And Abril being below him is a joke too. Even if you go along witht he official decision for the Rios fight, he still beat Acosta previously. he should without doubt be above Murray. Apart from that, I think Vasquez has more quality wins at the weight than any one else so would make him the default no.1 after Marquez moved up.
use to be you could disagree with their rankings but still see a logic and reason now there is alot more :huh
Rees should be higher than Murray for one. Case for Burns to be higher than Demarco? Katsidis and Moses better than any name on his record IMO except maybe Linares
No Murray goes slightly ahead for winning Prizefighter as well, something even the great Sturm hasn't been able to do.
