BoxRec Forum HW Top 15 ranking - Chisora vs. Pulev II

[Ruthless-RKO]

why should guys who didn't fight drop a rank.

This happens all the time with rankings though doesn’t it?

Tbrb, Ring mag etc.

[Ruthless-RKO]

Assuming the likes of Helenius, Wallin, Sanchez will probably fight BEFORE Pulev does.

They can prove that they indeed belong above Pulev.

It’s still early days.

Seems to be a split coming just like the Chisora poll.

with the heavyweight division almost in a coma that isn't a given at all.

Wow! The person he beat wasn’t even in the top 10 himself.

And now people want Chisora in the top 10.

This is a weird take from someone that clearly knows boxing... He beat out 11th ranked guy.... thats a great win.

-Wilder is 4th even though his best win is our 9th, Plus wilder hasnt won in nearly 3 years.
-Parker is 5th even though he has never beaten a guy in the top 5 (he has actualy never beat anyone who was top 10 at the time he beat them i dont think).
-joyce is 8th even though he has never beat anyone in the top 15.
- ortiz is 9th even though he has never beat anyone in the top 15
-Bakolie is 10th even though he has never beat anyone inside the top 15. (mabey yoka was 15th... cant remember).

I personaly want chisora 9th, but can see why people dont want him top 10 due to both fighters age. but being suprised that you can jump higher than the person you beat is odd.

[Ruthless-RKO]

I don’t think it’s got anything to do with age.

Unpopular opinion but I would say no change. When a fight is that close, and both guys are basically gatekeepers these days, why move them up or down.

Both men are OUT. They are old and no longer top 15 stuff, I would pick many no rated fighters to beat them, the promoters of boxing forbid such stuff so these old has beens seek each other

Probably wrap this up soon.
