Murray lost a questionable decision to Martinez and was elevated several places.

His matchmaking has been Brookesque. Awful stuff. Paper champion.

I didn't rank Murray at No. 2 last month or the month before that either, my dear chum.

Taffy can put his own points across far better than I can.

The win.
OK; some people thought that Frankie deserved the win v Bundu who is a very good fighter; shouldn't Frankie have held his spot?

Martinez is a lot better than Bundu. It's not really the same situation.

Why should holding a title mean anything rather than purely going on who someone fought and how they performed?

Is a win over a certain boxer more impressive if it was for a trinket instead of being non-title bout that is otherwise the same?

Sergio was better than Bundu, way before the Murray fight though.

No, he was better in the Murray fight as well.

Bundu is a solid fringe world level fighter. Martinez was a top 10 P4P fighter.

Quigg isn't holder of the WBA belt though - not the proper one anyway. He's a long way from a genuine world title, I'd say his ranking is fair considering who he's beaten.
