Conor Benn BoxRec Ranking!!!

Post by CTaylor1999 »

How is the rankings on here decided?

Before Benns debut last night his opponent was ranked 620 in division, since Benns win his opponent has dropped 124 places to 744 while Benn goes to 358, that nearly 300 places better than his opponent originally was.

Im not saying its wrong i just have no idea what these rankings reflect or is it a guy at computer who just puts people where they think through fame/popularity.

Cos in my opinion if Benn's opponent had lost to any other boxer making pro debut by first round ko i doubt that person would of risen as high as Benn as done.

KO's and especially first round KO's are heavily rewarded in the boxrec calculator. And TBH I agree, you can't show a more dominating performance as a first round KO, doesn't matter if you're new or the world champion.
