William Joppy is now a cruiserweight

[Dye]

My thing is this. Why in the hell is he labeled in the top 5 of all time in the cruiserweight division. Thomas Hearns is rated 1 of all time and he didn't win a major title in that division.

it's nboxrec dont count on them for ratings

[Sir_Jose]

he was a 3 time champion cant take that away

He was a 3 time BELT HOLDER he was never Championj and the only reason he held thos belts is because King had a stangle hold on the Middleweight division with Joppy and Keith Holmes. When King finnaly let them two fight real guys they were destroyed.

if you got a WBA,WBC,WBO, or IBF belt then your a champion, dont be a dumbass

it's just a ****** system where Joppy may have beat a someone who at some point fought at cruiserweight and if that guy only had lets say 4 fights, won all but the Joppy fight by their system it makes Joppy one of the best cruisers all time for beating him . Like when they place ALI Vs Tyson it is not just their records that they add up they add every oponent they ever had and their oppenents opponents until you have this crazy list that makes no sense. i do like the idea of it tho

its an interesing, but utterly useless system
just dont be misled into believing its the opinion of somebody real

[IwatchBoxing]

Boxrec is biased. Those rumors that its all done by a computer is false, they rank them how they want just to piss people off.

Nothing was wrong with Green's,Hopkins or Taylor's wraps give Trinidad his credit . Joppy should have never tried to show off [put his guard down] and let Tito hit him flush in the first round in the first place .
