    Numbers can HELP you decide something, they should never decide it for you. When they do, you get things like Mayweather at number 2.

        How about Hopkins that high? or Pavlik at 3?

        Maybe they should modify the Formula

                They can keep the formula. But they should use better judgment on top of that. The formula should only HELP them make a decision, not be the decision.

                But, they are trying to be a factual site, as factual as can be, based on numbers. I get it. It's just open for pretty rational crtiques.
