    Except it was. Bradley was #3 prior to the Manny rematch. Manny took his spot. Ward was #2, and he got bumped for inactivity.

      Once again, Fury is a worthy winner, but don't attempt to justify it by pretending the Wlad win is that much better than a Manny one.
      At the time of the fight plenty of people and sites had Wlad #1.

      Pacquiao was floating around the mid top 10 for the years leading up, perhaps only when the fight was announced was he artificially elevated.

      Pretending? Look at the odds for Mayweather to win and then for Fury to win.

      Beating Klitschko for Fury is a much better accomplishment than beating Pacquaio for Mayweather.

        Fail. Chocolatito was almost universally number 1 at the time of the Fury fight, and Manny was almost universally number two at the time of the Floyd fight. Your version of events is entirely made up. Not even sure why I'm arguing with someone who has no clue.

        All you had to do was state that Fury being the underdog made it a better win, and you'd have no arguments from me or any reasonable poster.

        Instead, you tried to use p4p rankings to justify it, and those came back to bite you in the ass. You failed. Miserably.

          Dude chocolatito is not universally recognized as #1 anytime in his entire existence. You're right. I must have made it up in my mind how people said Wlad must now be #1 based on his accomplishments in the sport and his dominance.

          I must have made up in my mind how it turned into one of the biggest threads on NSB.

          You're right. It didn't happen at all. It was all in my head.

          Oh and FYI, my first comment in this thread related to their official announcement thread where I said exactly that.

          But yeah *omg* massive fail. *hahaha* lawlz* *pwned**

          Now piss along kid.

            Loooooooooool. No need for the tears "kid". You shed enough of them in the other thread because Floyd was named boxingscene's fighter of the year.

                  The more I think about it the more I think Badou Jack should've gotten more of the votes. I mean, this dude was supposed to lose twice.

                  Maybe we should name Fury the BS singer of the year. His post-Klitschko tune would probably win in a poll over the entrance song Manny sang for the Mayweather fight.

                      That's cool.

                      I have no problem with people picking Fury.

                      We going to just forget the giant shit storm that happened not too long ago when another of their covers was revealed?



                      So cong**** to Fury on winning, but the almighty Ring has lost a lot of luster over the years, IMHO.
