    Frank Bruno and Miguel Cotto the same level?

    Makes no sense.
    Frank Bruno was a B-, I believe that is what I selected.

    Miguel Cotto is a A fighter.

    I am not sure what your issue is with Frank Bruno? He probably would of stopped Shannon Briggs within 8-10 rounds at his peak etc

      And was one of the weakest fighters to be MW Champ.


      hmm yeah forgot about him at 160 being the actual lineal champ there, was thinking of him 140-154.

      prob one of the weakest middle lineal champs of all time, got a title over a hobling fighter who could barely stand, sergio's team should have rescheduled the fight, they actually asked if he could wear a knee brace for the fight and were denied. like come on, make the fight when the people are in an actual condition for it

        oh i know thats why its kind of meaningless to list how many weight divisions he won titles in. i'd rather beat one good fighter in 1 division than 4 mediocre ones in 4 divisions

          These results will be mailed out to the fighters addresses all at one time in a big giant envelope, so they can't miss it!

          Once 15 fighters have been graded, the entire batch will be mailed out.

          If the fighters want a chance to respond to the critics, they will get their chance to do so by signing up on this site.

          All of the fighters threads are open, so they are free to reply at anytime.
          this system doesnt make a whole lot of sense to be honest. shouldnt you be using the median score not the majority? that way everyone is represented. for example if 5 people vote F and 4 vote A that fighter is an F lol, but if you did it by median he would be a C or C- i mean its mostly just biased people voting with their own standards anyway so its not a big deal.

            There should be an A-, that’s what I’d vote for Miguel.

              wow he was better than shannon briggs lol. briggs was a bum. not many people seem to realize that he only beat one top 10 fighter his entire career! and he won that fight with literally one second left on the clock in the 12th in a fight he was losing. prime briggs if there is such a thing got schooled by 50 year old foremand and jameel mccline. briggs had a big mouth though so he stayed in boxing for 20 years. boxing being boxing

                      If Frank Bruno is a B level fighter and most people are in here are calling Miguel Cotto a B level fighter then that’s a massive problem.

                      Bruno is a solid contender who won a paper strap on his 3rd or 4th try against another half decent contender (at best)

                      He’s C level AT BEST.
