I dont understand how Mosley jumped Hopkins when they were both inactive?

lmao
i was thinking the same thing

[ИATAS]

How did mosley jump hopkins?? haha, I guess his ring intervention with Floyd gained him a spot.

I don't have a problem with the names on the top 10 (although I'd insert P-Will in there), it just needs to be shifted around a bit. Cotto should be higher than Donaire, Cab is too high, etc..

[T.Horton]

Wow.
Thank you so much for restoring my faith in the Ring.
Apologies, all, that list was apparently bull****.
Still, Mosley over Hopkins?!?!
WTF?

just gave you green for your rant and then it turns out the rant was for nothin' lol.

Where the hell did that list come from??? Its certainly not from ring magazine.

[Chunk..]

I for one find the Boxrec rankings a bit more sane these days. At least they use a bit of actually science and method related to boxers performance unlike the social propaganda of the Ring rankings - which is quite frankly is **** and bent as the clappers!

[βetamax]

I'd like to read more boxrec's methods for determining their rankings. I imagine it's severely flawed. For example, if a fighter is ripped off I imagine they apply the official scoring even if it's in contrast to the general consensus of fans and experts.

[The_Demon]

its a good list in the sense that williams isnt on their
its a bad list in the sense thats its pretty inaccurate

[jrosales13]

Cotto should be #6

Dawson, Williams, Hasewaga should be on the list instead of Donaire, Izzy, and Rafa.

Everything else is fine.
