So because Ruiz beat aj he has to perminatly be above everyone ah ever beat? With that logic Parker beat Ruiz so I guess he has to be perminatly above anyone Ruiz ever beat. This logic gets very messy very fast.

Ah ok. Honestly I’d give whyte as good a chance as Ruiz. Whyte is pretty average but good at creating exchanges where he has the power for knock aj. Gotta remember last time they fought Whyte was a rank novice vs an Olympic gold medalist and still gave aj one of his scariest moments in his career.

of course that could happen i mean we aint far of the same in our rankings were talking like 2 spaces, and i agree i would fancy whyte against ruiz asswell , i just think aj has whytes number and i think ruiz would fancy a shot aj not saying he would win , and i think fury would box whytes head of , i mean there aint much between them all outside the top 2

In a way, it's also based on how we vote. One fight at a time.
I quite like that different posters have different criteria:

• Head to Head

• Best Win

• Strength of Resume

• Personal dislike of a fighter

It doesn't mean you are wrong about Ruiz Jr. but to be fair to the current ranking, whilst he had a great win over Joshua and a close loss to Parker, the last time we saw him in action he was horribly overweight. Which resulted in him being easily outboxed from the outside. And he hasn't fought since.

[aicheligad]

Yeah the fact that different posters have different criteria is probably what makes this ranking good.
