In case you were wondering

As is often the case, there is no point to this thread

A few surprising ones:
Groves ahead of Degale, despite Degale being World Champ and unbeaten in 6 years.
Khan ahead of Brook, despite Khan only winning one fight in over 2 years.
Campbell ahead of Crolla.
Whyte so low in the rankings / points.
The difference between Liam Smith and Liam Williams.

Just shows how difficult it is to score and rank fighters.

I can understand Khan being ahead of Brook simply because he's consistently fought at a higher level.

Not sure how Groves is above DeGale though, presumably the Froch fights counted for loads.

Groves beat Murray less than a year ago, which gave him a good points boost. Degale drew with Badou Jack, which reduced his points.

I didn't mean this thread as a dig at Boxrec. I was just look at possible future opponents for Anthony Yarde & noticed the huge gap between 1 & 2 in both the Light Heavy & Cruiser divisions.

After that I couldn't help myself

Khan ahead of Brook, despite Khan only winning one fight in over 2 years.

Bloody hell!
