    I know. It's unfortunate in Calderon's case. But what can you do?

    If there were a formal uprising, the committee could rewrite that section of the Constitution, but then you'd have to have a very high rate of people willing to change it in order for the rewritten rule to take effect.

    I think it's great that knowledgable posters on this board are taking the time to put together a ranking for this board.

    Good list.

    But Israel Vazquez should have been considered champion at 122lbs. He did beat the previous champ in Oscar Larios after all.

    Yeah, I thought he'd be voted in as champ. But rules is rules. As long as the trilogy is completed with Marquez, however, it shouldn't be a problem.

    Just curious, how many members do you have on the panel and what are the qualifications? Is it just through reputation and proving yourself over time?

    Yep. If you stick around here for a while and display good knowledge without irritating bias, you'll have a shot.

    The percentage for being voted in is 66.67, which is tough but not impossible. I originally had it set up to be 75%, but others thought that was too high and now I agree.

    I will second this.

    I think these rankings are a good stab. I think they could become something to be pround of. Why not? A lot of guys **** up. I bet collectively with Lampley's guidance we can find the best possible rankings voted upon by a crew of boxing enthusiasts.

    If a community effort like this doesn't make the front page, what should?

    I think an article should be written about it for ESB.
