This guy has one win total since 2012, and it was vs. an Argentine meat packer. How is this guy anywhere near a top 10 list?

Transnational Boxing have updated their list also :
#. Mayweather
1. Pacquiao
2. Bradley
3. Brook
4. Khan
5. Thurman
6. Porter
7. Maidana
8. Chaves
9. Ali
10. Rios
*Welterweight Shawn Porter fought Adrien Broner as if it was personal –he waded in close behind a strong jab and a disruptive medley of winging shots, made it rough, and took a clear decision. Porter rises from #7 to #6 just under Thurman, though several members believed that Porter deserved to be over Thurman. We know this much, the mid-range of the welterweight rankings (Khan, Thurman, Porter) are separated by inches.

Wow! He was beating Brandon Bum Bum Rios before getting his dirty ass disqualified? That earns him #8 at WW!
