    Carrington has fought no one and is ranked #1 by two organizations. Ridiculous.

        All these rankings and those that control them are full of s*h*i*t too! They all manipulate the people and belts and rankings as fit by who's paying not who's worthy and to be honest I see why boxing is losing, Big Time Too! ****KK the WBA, WBC, IBF, IBO, NABF, USBA and all them other weak a*s*s organizations behind all this nonsense.

          Jaime Munguia just lost but somehow he doesn’t lose his spot in the rankings?

          The WBO is a joke. Just like the rest of the alphabet groups.

            No. 1 HW Fury lost to the beltholder Usyk via a close UD and went from 1 to 3.
            No. 1 126 Robeisy lost to the beltholder Espinoza which had some potential dirty elbow plays by the beltholder and went down from 1 to 7.
            No. 1 105 Taniguchi lost to Simsri ranked no. 3 at 108 via SD and went down from 1 to 3.
            No. 3 168 Munguia lost to an unranked Surace via a KO that nearly ripped his head off and stayed at 3.

            It all makes perfect sense. /s

                Turkey has already sorted the HW scene in 2024.

                  Given Espinoza is about to move up to 130 in the near future, I guess Top Rank is preparing to have a vacant belt match between Carrington and Khegai next year.

                    He should fight before summer

                    He fights just over once a year, he took no damage in his last fight so there's no reason he shouldn't be out by April/May

                    Unified champions should be fighting 3 times a year, with an exception made if they take damage in a fight in the form of cuts or get hurt bad or something like that then 6 months is acceptable.

                    He should have a month off on vacation then it's time to make the next fight for April or May

                    Saudis have helped the heavyweight division but now they need to make the champions more active, one fight every 10 months on average isn't enough.

                    Say what you want about Wlad but I miss his regular 3 fights a year, you could set your watch to his consistency of defences.
