Light Heavyweight (175lb) Rankings

[Weebler I]

My 175lb rankings.

1. Stevenson (Can)
2. Kovalev (Rus)
3. Hopkins (USA)
4. Pascal (Can)
5. Shumenov (Kaz)
6. Dawson (USA)
7. Fonfara (Pol)
8. Chilemba (Mal)
9. Braehmer (Ger)
10. Campillo (Spa)

Obviously there's some debate about #1 and #2 but I think Stevenson deserves the #1 spot for beating Dawson irrespective of his loss to Ward. Stopping Cloud and Bellew solidifies his position.

Kovalev I think has beaten better competition than Hopkins in the past year or so. Again personal opinion but Cleverly, Campillo are better than Murat and Cloud.

Shumenov holds a title so warrants a top 5 spot, and Dawson hasn't fought since his KO loss to Stevenson. I think Chilemba is a better fighter than Fonfara, and maybe some of the others above him but doesn't really have the names on his record to back it up.

Anyone think Bute or Cloud deserve a spot in the Top 10? Should Braehmer perhaps be higher? Elieder Alvarez?

The nuthuggers are gonna come after u for having Duck Man and Drago in front of BHop. I wanna see Pascal get in there with Kovalev and defend the honor of his fellow black Canadian brother.

Those ratings look good to me. I think Kovalev beats any 175 pounder alive but based on his recent wins Stevenson is the true champion and deserves the number one spot until someone beats him in the ring. I think Stevenson will lose to Kovalev but it's a fight that could go either way. I don't think any other light heavyweight can beat either Stevenson or Kovalev. They are the two best.

No Murat or Cloud.... already decent looking

[ИATAS]

Looks pretty good. If Hopkins beats Shumenov he should be #2 imo.

Schit...Pascal gets destroyed by Kovalev. If Bute would have let his hands go before the 12th round, it would have been an easy match....he throws 4 punches and almost drops him. Kovalev would break him up badly imo, not enough defense.

[Showtime..]

Pascal is very overrated. Had Bute of old been in there he would have Tko'd Jean by the 8th.

i like your rankings.

Don't think so. Shumenov shouldn't have a belt, and is only rated because of his phony title.
