which 'world title' means has the least credibility?

Although WBA super champ business is plain stupid

 

1.WBC & Ring


2.WBA






3.IBF













4.WBO

 

Exactly!! If forced to pick, I'd probably chose the WBC, as Jose Suliaman's band of thieves are a wholly-owned subdsidiary of Don King Productions.

 

They all suck including The Ring Mag.

I favor FightNews rankings:
(Shown Here for Heavyweights)

1. Wladimir Klitschko (IBF)
2. Ruslan Chagaev (WBA)
3. Sultan Ibragimov (WBO)
4. Oleg Maskaev (WBC)
5. Samuel Peter (WBC Interim)
6. Nikolai Valuev
7. Tony Thompson
8. Alexander Povetkin
9. Shannon Briggs
10. Sergei Liakhovich
11. Calvin Brock
12. Alexander Dimitrenko
13. Vladimir Virchis
14. Juan Carlos Gomez
15. Hasim Rahman
16. Eddie Chambers

I would switch Chambers & Brock since Chambers just beat him but that's not bad.

 

1. Joe Calzaghe
2. Lucian Bute
3. Mikkel Kessler
4. Jeff Lacy
5. Anthony Mundine
6. Dennis Inkin
7. Jurgen Brähmer
8. Sakio Bika
9. Markus Beyer
10. Librado Andrade
11. Jean Pascal
12. Carl Froch
13. Alejandro Berrio
14. Vitaly Tsypko
15. Allan Green


---------------------------

Their SMW rankings suck...Kessler is better than Bute, Lacy is certainly not better than Mundine, what is Beyer doing there anyway - he's retired..., Bika is Top 10, but 8th - come on!...Pascal is not that good yet and ...Froch not that bad...yet...what is Tsypko doing at 14??? - should be higher than that...

 

I picked the WBA because their HW rankings are probably the worst & least justified:

C. Ruslan Chagaev (Practically inactive due to illness)
1. Nicolay Valuev (Just beat Bergeron who?)
2. Serguei Liakhovich (Hasn't fought since being KO'd by Briggs)
3. John Ruiz
4. Davaryll Williamson
5. Taras Bidenko (Has he fought recently?)
6. Michael Moorer (Hasn't beat anyone to be ranked in the top 10)
7. Wladimir Virchis (Didn't he KO Bindenko?)
8. Mike Mollo (Hasn't beat anyone to be ranked in the top 10)
9. Juan Carlos Gomez (Just Beat McCall and should be higher)
10. Alexander Dimitrenko
11. Alexander Povetkin (Just Beat Byrd and should be higher)
12. Hasim Rahman (Riding the tomato can express to move up in rankings, again)
13. Jean Francois Bergeron (Who?)
14. JD Chapman
15. Kali Meehan

 

Their LightHeavyweight rantings suck.

1. Bernard Hopkins
2. Zsolt Erdei
3. Chad Dawson
4. Stipe Drews
5. Antonio Tarver
6. Clinton Woods
7. Tomasz Adamek
8. Glen Johnson
9. Thomas Ulrich
10. Adrian Diaconu

Whats Adamek doing there?

 

All fair points but I was concentrating on the Heavys even though the thread was about the ABC's rankings in general.

 

WBC. Sulaiman sucks.

 

Nah, come on, Tomasz Adamek deserves to be there - they are just anticipating his next performance being great!

 

it really depends on the weightclass

i say right now its IBF

 

I picked the Ring. Nobody knows what the hell it is, and the only reason anyone does is because of Max Kellerman ranting on it all the time.

Next would be WBO followed closely by the crooks at the WBC.

 

Have to admit that LHW is as far north as my limited knowledge extends...

 

its not stupid, its one of the only smart things the ABC's have done.

WBA is the most legit belt of the 4.

 

How do you make that one add up?:think
