i was on ESPN.com/boxing and saw dan rafael's twitter posts about the WBC rankings and WOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOW what a PATHETIC organization....
just figured id share the ridiculousness with you guys that havent seen it yet. these are straight from dan rafaels twitter and can be confirmed on the WBC's website.
- Arreola 3rd, Adamek 4th. Adamek cleanly beat him not long ago
- Chavez Jr. is ranked 1 at middleweight. There are no words to describe that atrocity
- Let's put rancid WBC's 140 rankings in perspective: 1 Erik Morales is ahead of Devon Alexander (2), Victor Ortiz (8) & Lamont Peterson (21)
- Ray Austin must have pictures of someone at the skanky WBC. He is still 5th at heavyweight! He shoudn't be 25th
- I need a towel! At 118, horrendous WBC ranks Darchinyan (coming off loss) 3rd and Donaire (coming off tremendous win) 4th.
- The spewing rolls on! Margarito, who got his face broken in a shutout to Pacquiao, is 5th at 154 with no wins of remote note at weight.
- The vomiting continues! Arthur Abraham 3rd at 168 but has lost 2 straight in routs, while Glen Johnson, coming off dominating win, is 5th.
- I'm going to vomit!!!!! Kelly Pavlik, out for nearly a year and coming off a loss is now ranked No. 1 at 168, where he has yet to fight.
KELLY PAVLIK NUMBER 1 AT 168 WHAT A MOTHER ****ING JOKE. **** the wbc. disgrace to the sport. trashy ass organization, someone bomb the ****ing place.

Plain Old dumb ranking methods if you ask me. I guess they just drew sticks and log the numbers on who becomes this on what rank....
Reminds me to have college grad levels do the rankings instead of bums who has connections in the boxing arena to do the math.
Pathetic...
you could literally take any member of this forum and create better rankings than those.
funkin right on man. this is horrendous. zelenoff #1 P4P in WBC.

Cripes, that's pretty terrible, even for the WBC.
