British fighters in the current world rankings

Post by dondada »

As part of Eric's regular 'Snips and Snipes' column, he offers an update on the above:

I always shake my head when I read these, even though I know they're shocking.

It's always 'interesting' to see all of Warren's fighters ranked so highly with the WBO.

Kell Brook no1
Ricky Burns no1
Cleverly no3

Secondly how everyone spells Brian as Brain :D

Otherwise another excellent piece from Eric.

I know he hasn't won for over 18 months, but Hatton at number 13 in the WBA rankings?

Are these guys for real?

If Hatton rang the WBA he could probably get a direct title shot, some 'super championship' bollocks

What is his ranking with the other companies... I read Eric report and sounds like he is out of all the other bodies ranking.

Nigel Wright being world ranked was the one that made me chuckle.
