Well even if he hasn't been posting it there, he's still been doing rankings, plus he could have been posting there under a different name before.

Thankfully one of thos must drop soon.
Sadly, you'll probably elevate the winner to the number 1 slot.

And I can't wait for Makabu to win convincingly as well
Murray is not overrated at all.

Quite frankly, it's shameful the way Murray is treated on these boxing boards.

He's one of our most proven world class boxers.

No it`s not. You think he`s the second best super middle or middle in UK. Sir, please.

I don't see it.

I've slagged off Breazeale, but he's still a much better opponent than 'Jimmy' Kilrain Kelly.

You don't think that I believe that Murray is world class?

If Bellew wins then he'll enter the top 10.

Good list, top work.

If you have the 2006 version would be good to see it.

Saunders has awful stamina and is less proven than Murray.

Groves lost recently.

Good list. But Afolabi announced his retirement over a month ago (unless I have missed him un-retiring since), and Skeete seems a bit on the high side for me.

I think Joshua is a bit low at 19.

He's IBF Heavyweight Champ.

Yes he hasn't fought top draw opposition, but he beat the champ to become the champ and has smashed all before him.

I'm not sure what Lee Haskins and Martin Murray have achieved to be higher for example.

He's defending his title in a month's time and he still hasn't got an opponent named.

I doubt that he'll be taking on someone like Trout at that sort of notice.

BoxRec's 139th ranked light middleweight Stephan Horvath seems to be ranked at No. 14 by the WBO though. Pehaps he's willing to fight at short notice.

Sirimongkol Singwancha sounds like a good opponent to make people think he's fighting someone good. Fought reently but his record has a few close together fights.

I generally wait a few months before taking out retired fighters, as they often change their mind and return to the ring fairly quickly.

Perhaps Warrington and Hall should have re-entered the rankings above Skeete.

Joshua's smashed a bunch of bums.

Yes, still awful, but a lot easier to sell than Horvath.
