Boxer tried to downplay josh paddy.
Boxer tried to downplay josh paddy.
I checked this morning and josh paddy was ranked#25 in the world for lightweights and #3 for British lightweights. After it was confirmed that he'll be fighting Shakur Stevenson next, I checked again and they moved him down to #55 in the world, and #3 in great Britain. They want to down play him so Shakur Stevenson doesn't get credit for beating him. Racism in Boxing is so real it's sad. It reminds me of when Terence Crawford beat Israel Madrimov for the WBA super Welterweight title. They immediately removed the WBA title from all records and rankings on boxrec.

Check it again. You'll see that my point has been proven. they moved him down to #55 all so they can discredit Shakir Stevenson.

Re: Boxer tried to downplay josh paddy.
his change in rating is because he's now ranked in a different division than he was before
and boxrec dropped the white guy not the black guy, your point makes no sense. if boxrec were willing to manipulate the ratings they could just drop shakur himself if they didnt like him
Re: Boxer tried to downplay josh paddy.
Obviously Stevenson slapping around a last-minute replacement who hasn’t beaten anyone is a much bigger deal if they are ranked 29th, as opposed to 55th.

Re: Boxer tried to downplay josh paddy.
It's much easier to find a replacement for the heavies, no weight making involved but any boxer worth their salt should be ready to go whenever there's a big Turki card, short sighted if you dont
Re: Boxer tried to downplay josh paddy.
You know what..
I think there is a bug that adversely affected Padley's ranking.
I suspect he should be around #20... (before Stevenson crushes him).
I made a post in the ratings board..
