Some crazy stuff. The IBFs are just mental. It says they were updated on 23rd December too.

Is Lebedev in there by mistake or am I missing something?

After seeing the stunt the WBO pulled with Stieglitz' new opponent, I don't care much for ratings anymore, they are a joke.

I don't know who's missing something...he's in their ratings as British so perhaps he's registered here or something. Or it's yet another mistake (by them, not me).

Interesting.

So Anthony Small wasn't lying when he made the classic quote when pulled up on his remark that he was in the top 5 in the world "I read it on the internet!"

The WBO rankings are even worse.

I had to look it up as it was annoying me. Turns out he is more than likely registered in Britian as he is promoted by none other than Mr. allegedly so thats probably why he is in the rankings.

WBO is a farce and the only ones that deserve the spots in their rankings are Cleverly, Mitchell and possibly Brook. Then again its the WBO controlled pritty much by Arum, Warren and the worst promotional company imo in the whole of boxing; universium.

Broadhurst has beaten bums and got very well beaten by Haskins, Smith was #4 with the WBO before he won a British title says something about the ratings, Enzo does not deserve to be in any rankings because he has lost 3 out of 4 fights. Ricky Burns #1 is another joke does not deserve to be that high, top 15 maybe but definitely not top 10.
