Can someone explain to me what gives with the rankings these days? Both the official rankings in the various governing bodies and unofficial one like 'ring' etc I mean as a UK boxing fan (fanatic if I'm honest) I love the idea of Anthony Joshua being right at the top of the heavyweight division but not after 16 fights against er...limited opposition? I mean he's somehow found himself in mandatory positions, I think the IBF has him as number 2 in the world (last I looked, could have changed now) but I mean thats ridiculous. He could be fighting Charles Martin for a world title in the next few months if it gets made and I just think that its too fast. Hes not the only example. Take Vasyl Lomachenko. Looks like a really bright prospect, slick as hell, defensively blessed, really classy looking kid. Ring have him at number 1 in the featherweight division...after 6 fights!! You have guys with much more impressive resumes below him in that list, some unbeaten (which I dont think he is) Leo santa cruz is 31 or 32 and 0 with 1 draw...I mean, I really dont get it..It seems like certain people have certain favourites based on certain (uneducated imho) criteria and the chosen ones seem to just get 'ushered' to the top on a red carpet while naked chicks scatter rose petals at their feet...This is boxing right?
