    Because while he won he didn't do so in an impressive fashion, and nearly lost. And/or The Ring may have actually scored it for Clottey, I'm not sure.

    But those rankings are on point, imo. But Caballero needs to be replaced with Paul Williams.

        Paul Williams hasn't successfully defended a belt yet. Till he does, then I would agree. Also his win against Winky is very overrated since Winky has been thru a long layoff.

          The Ring take the official out come AFAIK, or rather knew. Moving down two positions is roughly what happpened to Cotto for an actual loss. This time he wins and goes down 2 again. I agree, WTF.

              I think Vic should be 5. He is the only champ in all 3 sanctions

                  I disagree. Winky was clearly game and showed no signs of being old or rusty. Paul Williams is just all wrong for Winky's style.

                    If you say so man. I do agree it can be due to the style but it wouldn't of been a blowout against an Active Winky.
