Fury is retired he should be removed

This thread has certainly taken a dramatic turn. Anyone else miss the days when we just argued about Murray being too high?

Warrington and Campbell are too high imo
Horse may be eccentric but adds value to the forum

There are some on here who would want Jamie Cox included!

I think I might have to leave the forum.

Utter morons are given moderating powers.

This forum is a shadow of its former self.

Horse, I'm merely following EU guidelines and showing exit signs. If you are worried about health and safety I can show you those too along with our very own Fire Escape signage.

Maybe Horse feels put out he wasn't given the job

Horse is decent enough chap. I'm sure he will be sticking around.

Is Horse really FW ?

Bolt the stable door.

Amir Khan !1 2th! Horse you always have that laughing stock of Uk boxing Khan too high!!
Always! And everyone comments on how you have him too high and you still have him too high! He hasn't won a world title fight for over 6 years!You obviously must be a HUGE fan of him but you are living in the past, and you are hugely embarrassing yourself.
Having him 12th is a joke and he's also not fought for 15 months so he should be too inactive to be on any lists anyway.

Degale at 1st is pathetic too

The list is agreeable enough for the most part, but I can't agree with Fury in the top ten having not fought in the best part of 2 years.

Also Del boy out completely after that great British title fight with Whyte (which many people thought he won) doesn't seem right either.

I for one would be sorry to see Horse go.
I don't always agree with his Top 30 but I always enjoy seeing it.

He's not going anywhere. If he did announce it just be on the look out for an abrasive and amusing new poster named Duck or Goat.

AJ should be top. he just beat a GOAT, is the worlds number one HW. Frampton just lost Degale just drew.

Id be very surprised if there was a person on here who could come up with a top 30 that wouldnt get criticism.

If you put it out there then you are opening up the flood gates so fair play

Shut up.

My bad.

fightfan95 wrote:It's very hard to decide who should be number one at the moment. DeGale is coming off a draw where many people thought he lost, Frampton is coming off a loss and so is Brook. Fury again hasn't fought and is pretty much retired. Joshua win against Wlad should be recognized, but his resume is hardly impressive. Groves just won a world title in good fashion - if he wins the WBSS you could arguably have him top?

Groves could get to No. 1 if he wins the WBSS.

A win against Pulev could be enough to put Joshua at No. 1.

Frampton beating that lame guy he wants to fight next won't be enough though.

Too low: Dillian Whyte, Ryan Burnett, Khalid Yafai

Whyte hasn't fought in 8 months and most people thought he should have lost his last fight against Chisora. He's about to fight an old bum. He won't be in the top 30 for much longer.

Burnett's record is pretty shallow and he's not as proven as those above him. I don't rate his win over Haskins as being a world class win, so maybe I'm being more negative than most people.

Yafai's record is also pretty shallow and I don't think that he deserves to be any higher at this point in time.

fightfan95 wrote:Too high: Tony Bellew, Amir Khan, Martin Murray

Those three all have very solid records and other fighters have to prove themselves before they can overtake them.

fightfan95 wrote:I'd probably remove Tyson as well, I can't see him coming back and he has said he has retired.

I'll wait until after the UKAD meeting before considering removing Fury.

X2. He's like the uncle that the family hates but secretly you like when he comes around. A Boxrec institution is our Horse. A fantastic Internet troll to boot.

Leave his thread alone.

So who changed the thread title?

I'm guessing mimmy?

I don't really see the need to play around with it...

Not guilty. I would have at least PM'ed Horse out of courtesy plus I didnt see the original post so I cant even say I agree with the accusation

Surely it was Anton.
