I don't think there would be a lot of complaints if Manny went to number one, he has a legitimate reason to be so after beating Thurman who has the greatest welterweight resume out there beside Pac and also still undefeated, but it is what it is, Ring Magazine must have a different criteria of ranking than TBRB and others as well.
I think the main reason for Ring Magazine is eye test. They believe Manny can't beat Crawford and Errol, they already pre-judged him. TBRB went to the more objective route, they believe Khan is too delusional to be a good win and Mikey Garcia is obviously not a true Welterweight who just went up 2 weight division and the rest of Manny, Crawford and Errol's competition is something to complain about.
There was no really impressive competition for the 3 of them other than Keith Thurman who is coming in his greatest physical shape ever, Keith's physic is so transformed that even Danny Garcia was so shook proclaiming him the winner of the fight in advance. Contrary to popular belief, I believe this is also the very best version of Keith Thurman, this Keith is measured, not punching wide and wild like before and is relentless. If the old Keith Version shows up, the one who is careless and punches so wide, I think Manny Knock or stopped him very soon. That version of Keith has no business against Manny basing from their recent match.
