The IBF’s rankings Middleweight and above are absolutely TERRIBLE.

[IronDanHamza]

Always are, every sanctioning body.

Why anyone pays attention to them I’ll never know.

[famicommander]

So being owned by a promoter is worse than ranking dead guys?

Again, once you lose your credibility it's gone forever and there is no worse. Credibility is something you either have or you don't, there are no degrees. It's pass/fail and The Ring fails, just like the WBA, WBC, IBF, WBO, and IBO. Everyone with integrity at The Ring left to form the TBRB.

That poster is very emotional.

I think they’re female but I could be wrong.

You mean like your credibility then? When you label #8 ranked fighters as credible wins for fighters you’re in love with based solely on the ranking but then call #3 ranked fighters “bums” when it’s a fighter you don’t like

Your credibility is in the bin.

No, being emotional is having a nostalgic attachment to the name "The Ring" when it has lost all meaning and credibility. They bent over backwards for Canelo multiple times just like the WBA does for Don King and Al Haymon, or the WBO does for Arum and Warren. They stripped the lineal champion Adonis Stevenson, which is the reason Beterbiev isn't The Ring champion right now. They awarded their title to fights involving their own #3 and #4 ranked fighters, contrary to their own championship policies. They are literally owned by a boxing promoter, and one of the most embarrassing ones at that in the cokehead De La Hoya.

And, again, the people who used to work there that had any integrity left specifically because The Ring lost its credibility. Those people formed the TBRB. Everything that was once good and admirable about The Ring is carried on in the TBRB, while The Ring has become a vanity project for Oscar.

Don’t really care, you’re comparing it to the WBA which is OBVIOUSLY retarded.

No shock there.

Credibility is a 1 or a 0. There is no in between.

TBRB is a 1.

The Ring, the WBC, the WBA, the WBO, the IBF, and the IBO are a 0. It's not a compliment to the WBA, it's an indictment of the rest.

Not really. It’s spectrum.

To compare The Rings ranking to the WBA’s rankings is overtly dumb.

Can’t I’m surprised because you are also overtly dumb.

The Ring was going to do an end-around on Crawford and award the Ring title to the Pac vs Spence winner if Spence hadn't pulled out.

Mate I don’t care.

The Ring is far from perfect but to act like it’s the same level as the WBA’s rankings is just fucking IDIOTIC.

Anyone with a grain of sense can see that.
