Was thinking that too Mick. Horses list is spot on!

[Horse]

Brian Magee went up for losing?

Yes. I thought winning a couple of rounds against Bute was enough to move him above Brook, who has not done very much recently.

Interesting. I think my rankings are much better.

I have highlighted the fighters that I think are significantly too high in red, and the fighters that are significantly too low in green.

[stujones]

I think Jason Cook being ranked 17 places behind a guy who he drew with is a bit harsh - yet it would appear you think there should be a bigger gap between them, horse?

[Horse]

As per usual great list Horse!!

Thank you, Alex.

[alexpaterson]

How can boxrec have McDonnell and Booth so low?

[Horse]

How could they have Ashley Theophane 16 Look at the boxers he's a head of on the List....

It is only a computer calculation. I don't think his placing is as bad as a lot of the other fighters.

It seems very kind to the heavyweight division: Haye 1st, Chisora at 5th, Sexton at 19th, Fury at 20th, Harrison at 24th, Rogan 41st & McDermott 46th.

Thank you. There is a lot of positivity this month.

That fight was over a year ago and Daws has done more than Cook since the fight, and he had done a lot more in the recent years before the fight.

I think Daws being in the top 50 P4P is reasonable, but Cook shouldn't be that high.

[stujones]

Daws is 1-1 since.... Cook hasn't lost since and beat a half decent fighter in Jones.

I aint saying Cook should be ahead of Daws, but there shouldn't be 17 places between them.

[Horse]

How can boxrec have McDonnell and Booth so low?

Rendall Munroe is only 28th and Stuart Hall is 40th as well.

The fighters from lower weight divisions don't seem to have as many points as the higher weight fighters.

[Horse]

Daws is 1-1 since.... Cook hasn't lost since and beat a half decent fighter in Jones.

I aint saying Cook should be ahead of Daws, but there shouldn't be 17 places between them.

I don't consider Jones to be as good as Williams.

Cook's best win in the last 5 years is against Barrie Jones. He just hasn't done enough to earn a place that high up the rankings.

Daws has beaten much better opposition compared to Cook in the last few years. A draw between the two of them (that happened over a year ago) is not enough to make them need to be very close in the P4P rankings.

You actually waited until then to post it so it wouldn't be called a joke? You make me laugh.

You post it almost dead on midnight each month. It appears robotic.

It's a good list, though.
