    Does no-one else remember Michael Bentt?? My gran KO'd him in a fight for a shopping trolley at the supermarket.

    Not even the worst beltholder at 140 in the past three years. That honor would go to Gavin Rees.

    Seriously, look at the records of guys like Aiken, Santana and Mayfield. Those guys take it to another level.

    Bentt was only the WBO holder though, at a time when it was barely recognised.

    I just wish that was still the case now - because their rankings are a joke. How Amir Khan could be No.2 with the WBO, not having even faced a top 10 BRITISH level fighter is totally beyond me!

    The WBO was viewed as the least prestigious of the 4 major titles, but it wasn't "barely recognized", thats overstating it a bit. Oscar De La Hoya, Marco Antonio Barrera, Naseem Hamed and plenty more big names and quality fighters held WBO belts around about this time.

    Was Amir ranked #2 by WBO before he beat Graham Earl then?

    I would have to change my statement regarding top 10 fighters in that case, because no he wasn't.

    I stand corrected :good

    I take it you see my view though?
