Been almost a year since his last fight and with no sign of any coming up. Frampton has won a world title and made an impressive defence since Froch last stepped in the ring. Although I'm not sure if Frampton could do it at Wembley area in front of 80,000

Froch is a consensus World top 10 P4P fighter. Frampton isn't close to that level yet.

No he isn't, not on my list.

He beat Groves twice, that's good, but it ain't top ten P4P worthy by a long shot.

How long do you need to be inactive before being removed from the list?

Froch's ranking is not solely based on beating Groves, is it?

When does inactivity end and retirement beginning in the HORSE scheme of things?

If a fighter is hanging round hoping for a career ending payday like Froch, fair enough keep rating him.

But even when fighters have announced their retirement (Rendall Munroe and Gavin Rees spring to mind) you insist on keeping them in the ratings?

Inactivity + retirement = Getting taken out.

Surely there was to be? So if Froch doesn't say he is retiring but doesn't fight for another year - he'll still be on the list?

Because he's been inactive for 34 years.

If Froch is inactive for 34 years then he will fall out by being overtaken 30 times, without needing to be taken out.

So there is an inactivity rule? You need to have a think about this list and its rules.

A prime Rendall Munroe was not somebody to scoff at, and was a physical beast. What shame is there in losing to him (who was clearly not the same man Quigg beats years later)

When will people learn an unbeaten record means nothing. Porter is a very good win, and so is Kiko who was coming off some very good wins of his own.

So Jim Watt is still on your overall list? He just been over taken by a lot of people?
