BoxRec Forum HW Top 15 ranking - Vacant #15

[Ruthless-RKO]

The only fight that might impact top 15 is Anderson and only if he fights someone top 30.

What if Yoka KO's Takam in 3 rounds.

Yoka sucks.

Looks like Anderson will fight George Arias.

Hadn't seen that. I see no point in fighting Arias. Disappointed.

George who?

[Ruthless-RKO]

George who?

At least it's not the old Brazillian one.

This one, i remember he won a SD against Cassius Chaney.. Was a clear win for Arias.

Arias impressed me with his win over Chaney. But then stunk up the joint in his next performance. I do not see Anderson having much problems. Should be a wide ud win

So that’s his KO streak finishes

Arias has decent defense and can take a shot. I think the ko streak ends.

it's a step up in my eyes.

i think jah will blow away arias..........i do think it's arguably a step up though, certainly at least his 2nd best.. obviously there was jerry forrest, but problem with jerry is that he can fight closely with a good opponent one fight, then stink it out and fight like a journeyman the next, barely throwing a punch and being shutout or close to it like he's nobody

arias at least comes into this as a semi prospect who has been the a -side himself much of his career, has some of his best wins lately, and as limited as his opposition has been he's exposed a couple guys with even more inflated records. he'd be favoured over almost all jah's prior opponents i'd think

all that said, im not sure that arias would beat johnny rice........and i was looking for jah to take a step beyond that level after he bashed up jerry. i think it's a good time for him to take on, say, pulev

I voted for Jared Anderson. By the eye test he seems to be the most skilled, while he destroyed the almighty Jerry Forrest, who whooped Franklin, Zhang and Hunter.

Yeah, this is where I'm at too.
Had a good think about it and really couldn't come up with a better option.
Part of my selection is based on potential rather than achievements.
With none of these guys fighting each other it's hard to really know where they are at.

I don’t know why he previously wasn’t ranked. He fought less than 12 months ago. He didn’t say he was campaigning at Bridget did he?

Yes he was declared as a bridger weight. Arias is currently the number 5 Bridger in the world according to the WBC

#97 Kem Ljungquist (14-0) vs #72CW Sefer Seferi (25-3-1)

Plenty of trash. a few good fights. Not many stand out fights. I'm also convinced that Romanov has already wasted his career with opponents like this at 37 years old.

Also, I don't see more than one or two of these changing the rankings at all.

Agreed.
AJ can only drop
JJ can only drop
Franklin can move up
Zhang can definitely move up
Jared can move up
Those are the only fights that may have impact on ratings.

If lucus brown can stop big baby is is my top 15… it’s a madness but it’s true. (Especially if opelu wins)

[margaret thatcher]

the sad thing is that he wouldnt even be undeserving if he did it
