Here are the Boxing Writers Ranking Poll latest rankings. I believe that this poll will become the most accurate ranking system going.

One or two shocking rankings I thought for the Brit guys this month.

Audley Harrison - 14th Best Heavyweight in the World?

Cruiserweight sees 3 Brits in top 15 - Nelson at 4, Thompson at 8, Enzo at 14.

Light Heavy sees Woods at 4.

Two Super Middleweights - 1) Joe Calzaghe - tied #9th Robin Reid.

Middleweight - Howard Eastman drops one place to 9 - No other Brits.

No British Light Middleweight.

No British Welterweight.

Two British Light Welters - Hatton at TWO and Witter at 7.

No British Lightweights. The system does need to eradicate the voters who put Johnson in this month - bit rediculous.

Super Feather - Arthur in at #13.

Featherweight - No Nicky Cook, but Harrison is in at 3.

No other Brits till we get to Flyweight where Kelly is ranked at #13.

Any brits that you were surprised at their inclusion/ommision.

Hatton at 2 is a joke.

Cook not top 15 is a joke despite my reservations about him.

A stoppage of Dazzo Williams doesn't make you top 15 in the world.

Scott Dann was in there a month or two back.

Fair point....but the featherweight division isn't a who's who anymore either.
