As i said last time, moving the thread on to B&I section.

Much more lively than CS.

I hate to be boring, but it wasn't more than a getting in rounds fight for me.
Boxrec have Franklin at #63 and I feel that's about right. So I'm happy with where Itauma is right now. If he beats someone in the top #20 I might think about moving him up.

Rankings shouldn't be based on potential, it should be on what they have achieved

If someone hasn't achieved anything in over a year, then they get dropped.

A lot of HW's are not active either.

Itauma to #9 because Sanchez shouldn't even be ranked.

Realistically, Sanchez, Bakole and Chisora could plausibly drop out by the summer. The 10-15 will be abysmal.

My current rankings:
1. Usyk
2. Wardley
3. Parker
4. Dubois
5. Kabayel
6. Ajagba
7. Torrez
8. Bakole - Will be dropped soon
9. Chisora
10. Vianello
11. Hrgovic
12. Zhang
13. Itauma
14. Huni
15. Okolie

This should be currant scenes. I know the uk forum is busier, but that also means the currant scenes forum is easier to stay at the top. And I think world rankings should be main page not uk pageโ€ฆ but eh Iโ€™m not to fussed.

Moses top 10 is such a stretch. Best wins are Dempsey and Franklin. Whyte was shot to bits.

Real shame Hrg isnโ€™t available for him, that would be a great step up. But gassieve would ment be a bad fight (wba regular ?)

how the f@ck did sanchez get to 9?! he has even gotten higher since kabayel beat him

its 2026 now. he hasnt beaten someone with a winning record since 2023. his last meaninfful fight he was beaten up and stopped. and he has a very thin resume anyway.

this is the danger of not putting the foot down to boot a guy out. he will keep getting higher by doing nothing because there will be higher ranked guys actually taking risks who get voted down for losing.

sanchez shoulda been voted out, or at least down to like 15, in his last fight.
