    I don't agree. I think it's ridiculous that some older fighters are ranked so high after losing so many fights. For example, today Oliver McCall and Sunil Sam are in an eliminator for a shot at the WBC title. People like Chambers and Dimitrenko are more deserving. Rahman looked bad the other night...yet he'll be given another title shot I'm sure. These old, out of shape men are boring to watch, while younger boxers like Oleg Platov, Kevin Johnson, Cris Arreola and Chazz Witherspoon are better for the sport. Many of these physically fit young guys would beat the over-the-hill Toneys and McCalls if they had the opportunity.

      I 100% agree with the post above. IMO they should let the younger guys fight the older guys and the winner moves on. Therfore if the older guys really want it they'll trian hard and fight hard for it. or else They disappear and we have some new more exciting guys to watch.
