    The Ring Super Middleweight rankings just made me LOL

    Sakio Bika is ranked above Arthur Abraham.
    Perhaps one of the most humorous and embarassing ranking systems I can recall.

        Also on the P4P............
        They have a guy who's been inactive for over a year at #3 & another who's only fought a tune up in god knows how long at #4. Let's not forget they have Donaire at #6 as well which is so fucking ******.

          Also just saw that neither Joan Guzman OR Juan Diaz is rated as a top 10 fighter in any division by the Ring.

            Froch?

            Dirrell is not rated in the top ten!
            What a disgrace.

              It is because of rankings like this that the Ring "title" is not recognized the same as a sanctioning body.

                Its just a list so casual fans can familiarize themselves with more popular boxers.

                If DLH came back and beat JCC jr. I bet he would be ranked at like #8 or something.

                  Joan Guzman campaings at LW now. How many top LWs has Guzman beat?

                  Diaz last 2 fights where at JWW. When He beat Malignaggi(Paulie got robbed) he as ranked #5 or 6 at JWW, then he got schooled by Paulie and they took him out of the rankings at JWW

                    Not even!! DLH hasn't been on the P4P list in forever. And that's even when he beat Mayorga after the layoff.
