How long until Riddick is ranked?

One fight or two?

He say he's going to fight 15 times in the next year. Hope he does.

But as Rahman is ranked1-3 for beating Terrence Lewis and Rob Calloway, how many Marcus Rhodes, Cliff COusers, Brian Nixs, Obed SUllivan, Zuri Lawrence, Dick Ryan, Ross Puritty types will it take for Bowe to be ranked top ten in some bodies....

I believe he may well deserve a top 20 ranking after a couple of fights.

This is the most talent-lite HW division since the War. Of the Roses.

Cmon Bowe!!!, i think 5 fights and they will be getting him a major fight. I would love Bowe to be a success again but im probably dreaming

I think it will only take a couple of fights, with so few 'names' in the division at the moment, Bowe is gonna be in demand from the fighters and their promoters, especially if they can get him before he gets too sharp.

Got to agree, it'll be only a couple of fights (unless he loses) until we see him in with a recognisable name. Someone will undoubtedly give him a title shot somewhere down the line (regardless of the opposition he fights) provided he stays on his feet.

This is going to have a sad ending. Surely there's no way he should be fighting? Has he been completely cleared? I thought he could only fight on Indian reservations, where there's no need to pass a standard medical test, which he'd supposedly fail.
