I think Flanagan and Hughie are too low, both McDonnels too low, but tbh there's not much out of place, good list.

No Callum Johnson?

Not that I like his win, but Whyte should be higher than Brook?

Murray is definitely not in the correct position

I have to say after being one of your harshest critics about you continuing to include Tyson Fury in the Top 10 for years when he was completely inactive, the fact that he's actually dropped 5 spots since returning to action with 2 fights is kinda hilarious. You can't make this sh*t up. He's Top 10 in England when he's 350 pounds, and looking like sh*t, but when he returns to action and gets 2 wins for the first time in years. He's 15 and then 16 :lol:

Well, you said you would drop Tyson if his opposition was repeatedly low, and you have :TU:
Cumulivity I think Whyte has deserved the spot above. I still don't rate him though :lol:

Selby ahead of Whyte is laughable, Whyte's win against Parker is better than anything Selby has ever done. Whyte is a bit raw and wild but he's a hard bastard with a good jab and legit power, the 'Welsh Mayweather' hasn't looked good for years and got beat by the first guy who is near world level.

Id put Whyte above Campbell,Selby and Josh Taylor.

Also where is Isaac Dogboe?

Dogboe should be top ten.

Maybe the fact he represented Ghana in the amateurs is stopping horse from including him.

Tennyson not top 30 yet top 5 in WBA and IBF and fights for world title next. Bit strange.....

instead of bringing up alphabet soup ratings how about comparing tennys wins, losses , and performances to the other rated fighters?

hes marginal at best

pretty sure dogboe is a nationality issue rather then a merit issue, i can understand hesistance to rate him, since he was born in ghana and lived there for his first several years, fought for ghana in olympics, and had 10 pro fights in ghana compared to 1 in the uk. i mean, its not so different from lewis moving to canada and representing them.

and he barely got any attention on uk forums until recently, now that hes a world champ to be claimed :lol:

Tommy Ward should also be in this list. There aren’t 30 better P4P UK fighters than Tommy.

You could put him above Catterrall and Ryder, neither of which deserve to be there imo.
James shock win against Ward is better than any of their results.
