Re: **UPDATE** The Ring 147 LBS Ranking
Horn a bit low for me, though I guess it makes sense if you think he was gifted.
I'd at least have him above Lucas, whose only win in the last two years is over Emmanuel Taylor.

Re: **UPDATE** The Ring 147 LBS Ranking
I agree
Matt too high in these ratings for a guy who is unproven at 147 and looked faded in a stoppage loss two fights ago.

Danny Garcia has actually beaten some top fighters, not just been gifted decisions against them.

Re: **UPDATE** The Ring 147 LBS Ranking
Garcia is coming off a loss, (laughable that you talk about gift decision), and his resume at WW is shallow as hell. Even if it was a robbery, Horn's one win and showing is a lot better. Garcia would not have done any better than Horn did against Pacquiao.gilgamesh wrote:Why?Mexi-Box wrote:Jeff Horn is way too low. I'd have him at least above Danny Garcia.

Re: **UPDATE** The Ring 147 LBS Ranking
Porter under Garcia and Brook is crazy. His only loss as of late is to Thurman in a fight that could've gone either way (I personally thought Porter won that fight). No valid reason to have Garcia or Brook above him.gilgamesh wrote:Here's my Top 15

You don't only get ranked solely off of your last performance, but off of your career as a whole...at least as long as you still seem to be operating at the same level.
Garcia has wins over better fighters than Horn has ever beaten. Horn didn't beat Manny.
Re: **UPDATE** The Ring 147 LBS Ranking
Brook beat Porter...so there's a VERY valid reason to have Brook ahead of him. Garcia gave Thurman a harder time than Porter did I thought.

I think Porter and Garcia are on about the same level, but as of this moment Garcia has a better resume so he ranks higher.
Re: **UPDATE** The Ring 147 LBS Ranking
It wasn't close at all. Thurman won that fight clear. Thurman beat Garcia clearer than he beat Porter (which wasn't clear at all).gilgamesh wrote:I know Garcia is coming off a loss.

Re: **UPDATE** The Ring 147 LBS Ranking
That win was too long ago to rate Brook solely on it. Porter has went on to do better things while Brook wasn't competing at the same level. Brook's current resume includes two losses. You can't rank someone ahead of another because they lost to that fighter years ago. It's been, what, almost 3 years ago that Brook beat Porter? Since then, Brook has wins over Donut Dan and other non-top fighters and two losses by KO.gilgamesh wrote:Brook beat Porter...so there's a VERY valid reason to have Brook ahead of him.

Re: **UPDATE** The Ring 147 LBS Ranking
I realize how long ago it was that Brook beat Porter, I also realize Porter has never done anything since to prove he's improved to the point that he's a better fighter than the Brook. Not yet.
He might get there with another big win, he's only 1 notch below Brook at the moment.

You can disagree with me if you want to. It's a forum, that's the point. Discussion. I have an answer for any question you want to ask about my rankings, if you don't like my answers I don't know what to tell you, but I have them. I trust my judgment more than yours. I'm sure you feel the same, which is why I encourage you to provide your own rankings.

So far, you're outvoted.
Re: **UPDATE** The Ring 147 LBS Ranking
Ring Magazine rates Horn lower than top 5 at 147 even though Pacquiao was top 5 in Ring ratings before the fight and Horn won by decision. Roman Gonzalez is No. 3 pound for pound after losing to Wangek. Ring is not consistent. They pick and choose what they want to acknowledge as a legitimate win or not. They obviously felt that Gonzalez deserved to win against Wangek, but they could not rate him higher than Wangek in the junior bantamweight division, so they rate Wangek No. 2 and Gonzalez No. 3 in the division, but have Gonzalez No. 3 pound for pound, basically inferring that they disagree with the decision of Wangek winning over Gonzalez.

Garcia would dominate the one-dimensional brawler Horn, as would Thurman or Spence.
