Re: Ratings - please read before commenting

Jermell Charlo ranked 3rd at 154?
Gilberto Ramirez #1 at cruiserweight?

At what point does this nonsense end?
If the rankings do not reflect common sense, what good are they?

Re: Ratings - please read before commenting

Was there another change in the algorithm? I've noticed some big changes... Due to the COVID-19 problems with organizing events the half-life of the ratings cap was extented then from 18 months to 36 months. Meanwhile the inactivity time, which was extented also then, was again reduced to the old v...

Re: Which carries more weight? What an opponent accomplished before or accomplishes after a fight?

It varies. Like say the Canelo win for Floyd definitely got better with time because Canelo went on to become basically the next big PPV mega star of the sport for the next decade following the fight, and has faced a who's who of his era, doing quite well. Then you have a case like say Joe Calzaghe...

Re: Which carries more weight? What an opponent accomplished before or accomplishes after a fight?

Before matters more. If their best accomplishment is after they fought you, then they might have notched that win using skills and athleticism that they developed after fighting you. In which case, the dude you fought was weaker than the dude who notched that later win. In which case, you don't des...

Re: Which carries more weight? What an opponent accomplished before or accomplishes after a fight?

There is no 'one size fits all answer to this one. I would argue the weight of a win is best judged by what the opponent had done in their previous few fights coupled with what they do in their next few fights. What they did 10 fights before or 10 fights after is almost irrelevant. Sounds good, que...

Re: Which carries more weight? What an opponent accomplished before or accomplishes after a fight?

Ultimately it has to be what they do afterwards. The Muhammad Ali defeated by Joe Frazier was completely different to the one beaten by Michael Spinks. Or let's take the case of Chris Eubank Sr. According to Barry Hearn Chris insisted on 3 particular conditions before signing- no southpaws, no unde...

Which carries more weight? What an opponent accomplished before or accomplishes after a fight?

As the title says, my question to you all is... which situation carries more weight in evaluating a boxer's opposition?
What their opponent has accomplished before their bout, or after? Are they equal? 60/40? 20/80?

I'm curious to hear your opinions...

Re: What if #1 Terrible Tim

That's if he did underestimate him. Spoon is always a problem for Holmes. He can catch a jab and has a great right hand counter, two things that will always give Larry a tough night. Everyone did, it was just another mismatch, on paper. There was nothing leading into this fight that even slightly s...

Re: What if #1 Terrible Tim

As I am enjoying Elmer's Top 100 p4p series so much I thought I'd start one of my own. May 20 1983 was a great time for me. And it was also the end of Larry Holmes' prime years IMO. He won a split decision against Witherspoon and many people thought Tim deserved the decision. What if he did get the...

Not saying that after the Loma fight, even before.

Seem's like black supporters only support black fighters that only linked with PBC.

See it a lot on twitter.
