[TiptonFC]

I've had a look at the quality of opposition for all the world ranked Frank Warren fighters that I could think of, adding up all their opponents records (won-lost-drawn-winning %)

Joe Calzaghe (935-285-26) 75%
Alex Arthur (443-183-13) 69%
Danny Williams (674-281-32) 68%
Matt Skelton (402-176-18) 67%
Amir Khan (269-117-14) 67%

Michael Sprott (546-269-35) 64%
Graham Earl (340-222-25) 58%
Enzo Macc (518-426-60) 52%
Kevin Mitchell (273-266-24) 48%
Gavin Rees (351-732-45) 31%

TOTAL (6325-3689-395) 61%

Now compare that to some other british fighers:

David Haye (468-212-39) 65%

Clinton Woods (732-377-55) 63%
Nicky Cook (519-331-28) 59%
Junior Witter (635-405-46) 58%
Carl Froch (346-258-28) 55%

TOTAL (3483-1974-247) 61%

And then to some other random world fighters:

Oscar De La H' (1468-116-43) 90%
Kostya Tszyu (1107-132-28) 87%
Floyd Mayweath' (1008-181-43) 82%

Kelly Pavlik (519-279-34) 62%
Ricardo Torres (194-170-7) 52%
Chad Dawson (361-416-23) 45%




Would also be interested to know if anyone can find:

1. A current reigning world champion who has faced worse opposition than Gavin Rees
2. Any world title winning boxer with a better level of opposition than Oscar De La Hoya

Oscar De La H' (1468-116-43) 90%

damn.........Oscar is out on his own.

Rees is possibly the champ with the weakest comp that I have ever known. His bout against M'Baye was a random surprise, when he won it was a serious shock. Not only has he faced weak competition, but he should at least be a lightweight if not a super featherweight, dude is what 5'4. Jesus Christ. Fair play to him though. Didn't he have a great amateur pedigree?

definitely makes you look at chad dawson a little different now.. considering his opposition

Good research. Frank Warren at the moment though has a lot of young fighters up and coming.
