No change, cause Heredia wasn't even near to the top.

No change. Unimpressive victory over Heredia. Hrgovic needs a step up fight. Last two wins were meaningless.

I think that's more of he shouldn't have been there int he first place. Based solely on this performance, he shouldn't go down in the rankings.

I'm still thinking. I would vote him out but I know there is some standard here by where we except their current position. I will probably vote him out in the end though cus I feel that's where he should be.

IMO his opposition doesn't merit a spot and he has looked lacklustre a good few times to me.

No change. Stays at 13.

Heredia is garbage, but somehow fluked a win against a shot Sam Peter. This win means absolutely zero.

If it was a dominant display, maybe. Thing is, he would be taking the spot from Chisora- who is on a bit of a roll right now.
Chisora knocked out Takem-only Povitkin can claim that feat.

Flippa hasn't done anything like that yet.

What absolute total chaos. So many different opinions, people voting him up, voting him out of the top 15, and no change.

You can see why ratings get in such a mess.

Surely you have to respect his initial rating and decide from there.

You can't vote him out after a win (unless the performance was exceptionally poor) or the decision by the judges was way out.

IMO he should just stay the same as the fight was insignificant.

A bit harsh don't you think.

a) there are no explicit rules to this list apart from "only the last fighters in the last fight can be re-rated"
b) anyone, including people who didn't vote for his initial rating can vote - maybe they have a different opinion.
c) as you state, up, down or out are plausible based on judging his performance.

However, that said, I do agree in principle with what the Association of Boxing Commissions state in their guidelines,

- that a winning boxing cannot go down
- that the only reasons for kicking someone out is inactivity of loss.
- that the only reasons for promoting are wins or activity

But hey, it's just for fun here.

You could move a fighter down with a win. If he seriously managed a 7-5 win against a journeyman, it'd be sensible to consider moving him down. But to move him down 2 or more spots for a third round stoppage against Heredia is silly. What would Hrgovic need to do to maintain his ranking? One-punch KO in the first round? 100-85 decision victory? Like... sh*t, y'all are ridiculous. Third round KO is almost as decisive as it gets. 2 years ago, Kabayel went the full 12 rounds distance against Herbe Huveaux. Breazeale went the full ten rounds distance against Fred Kassi. I feel like people on boxrec sometimes act like they've never seen boxing before and don't know what to expect. Like "Heredia isn't that good, so I expect Hrgovic to knock him out in the negative fourth round, and if it takes any longer than that, then I'll be disappointed."

Maybe we just think Hrgovič never belonged in the rankings.
