BoxRec Forum HW Top 15 ranking - Parker vs. Massey

[SportsRatings]

Yep wallin is one i fornicating hate. i dont actualy think he is that bad,

I get tired of guys whose best win is a loss

[joshj909]

Hunter has a fight against TBA on 18th March. Doubt it's Bakole given that it's a pretty low quality card. There's also rumblings of Hunter Vs Parker which would probably be later in the year.

Could we see Bakole on the AJ undercard against McKean or Wallin?

Ok i was against parker going down on a win, mainly because i think massey is a bit better than people were crediting and he was negative, and parker still got it done no dramas, and not to punish parker making a quick bounce back after a ballsy move against joyce...

But Otto just failed to drop or stop boxrecs number 250... whos 9-4, who has been down 5 times against journymen(mabey more), been stopped 3 times against journymen, is nearly 40, out of shape, fighting more rounds than he is use to.... in my opinion this fight shouldent of been sanctioned (not even close) and otto was from all acounts lackluster. Id vote him out of the back of that (and his distinct lack of anything good to make up for it).

i get otto scissorhands is short on decent wins and that's an argument to vote him out, but not getting stoppages in these types of fights is a big so what to me, he's a points fighter who boxes to win decisions, not a puncher, and he's always boxed up a level when he's stepped up. are we gonna rate terrell jamal woods higher than him now because he stopped the same guy.

talk of wallin-whyte this year, hopefully goes ahead

Kinda get that. And I’d of voted wallin down or out if he got a ko. But even a point fighter should be stopping people like this, weather you put them down or not.

Wallin vs Whyte would be cool and I’d be happy with it. But Wallin, Whyte, Parker, hunter, pulev, chisora, Ortiz, Ruiz and a few others….. all seem kinda past it right now, I’d like them fighting each other but I’d also like to see them fight some of the newer guys.

Divisions a bit of a mess right now really. Hope every “top 15” has a meaningful fight or 2 this year to clean it up.

The vote is over.
