    The Ring update their Rankings - Bizzare ratings!

    Stay updated with exclusive boxing news, fighter rankings, match analysis, and upcoming fight schedules. Your trusted source for professional boxing since 1922


    Ok, someone explain this to me.

    Previously the top 5 was:

    Pac
    JMM
    B-Hop
    Shane
    Vasquez

    NOW it is this:

    Pac
    Mayweather
    Shane
    B-Hop
    JMM

    Can someone explain to me how Shane Mosley has got in front of B-Hop without having even fought a fight?!
    The Ring are just trying to hype this Mayweather-Mosley fight, their ratings are flawed.

    Oscar's trying to help Mosley fight Floyd. Mosley's gonna need all the help in the world to try and get Floyd to face him in the ring. Sad but true...

      Hopkins hasn't fought in a long while and like you say to promote Mayweather-Mosley.

        It appears that way, if youre right about how they were. No surprise since Shane is with GBP.

          maybe because Hopkins hasnt fought in a longer time and is almost 45, and he might never even bother to fight again?

            He has also been ranked #2 at WW above Cotto.

              If that was the case it would have been that way just last week.

                  The reason why that is a flawed list is because Paul Williams should be in the top 5. Who else is moving up to fight bigger guys? Of course winning will only help his cause, but it's just the idea. And I think Floyd should be ranked underneath Mosley. Beating the #1 Welterweight is way more impressive than beating up on an old Featherweight.

                    GBP clearly controls the Ring ratings or at least has a big say in how it goes down. Mosley's last fight was in January and they never put him above B-Hop, but now they have put him above him, coincidently at the same time as he is getting in confrontations with Mayweather after his comeback fight.
