    but the people that MATTER, the judges, said that taylor won...they have to go by that. They cant overrule the official call and just put up what they prefer, which is what I like about them. You can probably bet they didnt like having to do that, but taylor won so thats the way it is.

          Yes that's right. Irregardless how the Rig MAG STAFF saw that fight, officially B-HOPS lost so they can't rate B-HOPS higher than Taylor. It is that simple, so stop the HATING and CURSING.

            There is a good article about this very subject written by Nigel Collins on the second or third page of latest issue with Lacy on the cover.....I will see if I can find it and post it.

              The British-based boxing magazine "Boxing Monthly" beats the Ring Magazine by a mile. Better pictures, better writers, looks better from inside out, it's not even close.

                  Rings magazine has BHOP winning against Taylor. But according to them, even if they(Rings) scored the win for BHOP, they still respect the decision of the judges giving the decision to Taylor. Thats the reason Taylor is rank higher than BHOP.

                  This has happened before. The Barrera-Morales 2 fight, Rings gave the win to Morales. But the judges gave the win to Barrera. Making Barrera the #1 instead of Morales.

                  End of Post.

                    ur granpa is one man. these people are experts who KNOW what they see when they see it. they know greatness, they know whos good, who sucks, whos hot, whos not, whos a contender, whos a pretender. the ring magazine belt is the most prized title in boxing simply because thats when one of the oldest and most knowledgable magazines portrays you as the best in ur class or in the world.

                    they know boxing.
