    :lol: Is that all you got out of that?:lol:


    You brought up how the smw he fought in was stronger than today because he beat a guy who later went on to be a fringe contender in another division years later.

    They simply weren't world class fighters. Whether the division was stronger back then or not wouldn't change it. Nobody believes it was stronger back then anyway, which is why the rankings were littered with regional fighters and journeymen types. Many solid fighters, but they were what they were. You're pretty much on an island with that one.

    Balzsay hasn't fought for over a year, which would remove him from contention in any event.

    It would be interesting to see how both would have done on the European circuit and see where they both would be in their careers now.
    I dont know how Wilder would have done if in so few fights had of fought at the same level as Fury, Haye, Chisora, Helenius, Pulev etc

    Further questions

    Broner beat Malignaggi, in his next fight he lost to Maidana and is now rated at 10 with Paulie at 8. I dont know how Broner gets placed below Paulie when he beat him one fight previously.
    Also Broner is noted with a loss and at number 10 at WW, yet is number 1 at LW with no loss.
    Im confused with these ratings
