Bit petty but he has a point. Seems quite a volatile kinda guy. Seen an IFL video with him and Tyson talking to Kugan and it looked as if they were about to give him a scheme booting. Don't think he's the type of bloke I'd like to be around if he had a skinful. Looks as if he's ready to kick of at the best of times when sober.

I assume he's moaning about being #2 behind Eubank?

He has a point to be fair. He's already beaten Eubank Jr and goes on to win a world title from Andy Lee. Meanwhile, Eubank beats Jeter and some of Saunders' sloppy seconds and moves ahead of him.

Yeah behind Eubank bud. That's what I was thinking. The rankings are strange at times.

It's the British rankings he's moaning about. He's no2 behind Eubank who he's beaten so he has a point. Means feck all on the grand scale of things really. He's got a world title.

Does seem odd that the ranking system has spat that out.

Racist to why? Saunders for being a traveller or Eubank for being black? I'm confused

The Boxrec ratings had Chudinov rated really high. About 11 I think.
That win propelled him above BJS and he only dropped below him briefly after the Lee win.

I thought it was obvious they were both pissing about; it was all pretty good natured.

I thought they were at first then I wasn't so sure. Maybe they're just the type you need to know how to take. Saunders always looks an angry young man. Don't think it would take much to set him off.

Yeah, they were putting the point over while having a laugh. Which I think was needed to be fair, Kugan just looking for the views as usual, with questions that he knows pisses Fury off? It would be funny to see him get dropped, Kugan would have plenty of views from that one. :lol: Love their stuff though first port of call for boxing news for me.

I'm not a fan to be honest - it's far too pally and knockabout for my liking, but I think that's just the nature of modern reportage, there's no longer any critical distance involved. People have personal relationships with the people that they are reporting on, which means they can't really ask difficult questions without offending them, or write anything negative without it having an impact on their ability to get access.

I've never been much of a fan of interviews with sports people to be honest, or press conferences. I find them fatuous.

I fancy Eubank to beat him in a rematch if it ever happens, however he does have a point here, he beat Eubank and then beat and became a world champ. Doesn't make much sense.

I guess he's a right to be aggrieved. However, Boxrec makes it's calculations on a purely non-biased basis, as it's automatically calculated (quite how he is below Eubank Jr is beyond me though) and it's not like boxrec has to seek permission to list someone.

I've said it many a time, I really like the Boxrec site, but the ratings have always been shocking...

Yeah, I picked up on it being him placed behind Eubank, I just couldn't help but make the comment though. The boxrec rankings can be confusing, perhaps he should try and understand how they work before crying like a diva though, and he should fight GGG if he expects to be taken seriously as a titlist.
