    Zsolt Erdei
    Cory Spinks
    Takefumi Sakata
    Joel Casamayor
    Huga Cazaeres
    Glen Johnson



    This is before the Raman fight.

    Which of these guys would you have ahead of Wlad, personally?

    I am not a fan of Wlad's at all, but I think he should have been ranked above all of these guys before Saturday.

    Inexcusable.

    The only reason for this could be its a heavyweight, and they seem very unfavorable towards ranking them amongst lower weight classes except in exceptional cases. Even so, how they rank those fighters over Wladimir on recent form, as well as overall resume, I'm not sure.

    I can't believe they have Zsolt Erdei above Wlad. Ring is just a joke of a boxing magazine if it ranks a can like Erdei above a long-term champ like Wlad who has taken on one top 10 contender after another for years now and won everytime, most by K.O.
    The underating of Wlad is shameful. I don't even believe the writers actually believe that Wlad is lower than Erdei. They seem to have an agenda.

    where is this list coming from? i don't see it on their website.


    for ****s sake, at the beginning of '08 Wlad was ranked bellow Valero, Zab Judah...to name a few. It's a disgrace...like Rolling Stone magazine.

    Casamayor has a case, IMO. That's about it.
