Ring ratings

Firstly, their P4P ranking had Bute in their top 10 last week. One would assume that Froch will creep into their top 10 on the strength of the win coupled with his resume. No show.

Secondly they have Manny/Floyd joint top. No qualms there but at WW they rank Manny higher. Shouldn't Manny therefore be #1?

Thirdly, they still rate Peterson at 2 in their LWW ranking. This on the back of the knowledge that he juiced in their fight. Shouldn't they take the lead and remove Peterson from their ranking or are they waiting for the enquiry?

Fourthly, they rank that Polish MW who got beaten by Hope in their top 10, yet Hope isn't ranked. Fair enough they dont rate Hope. But shouldn't the Pole be removed from their top 10?

Lastly they seem want to rank belt holders above others even when the belt holder is more or less a manufactured champion (Chavez) or the champ is obviously not the best (Paulie). OK they rank Paulie M at 7 in the WW division. BUt Daniel Geale at #2 MW? Really?

And Lara ranked below Vanes is a joke. Yes they ignored the result of the PWil fight and rank him above Williams (get well bro), And what the hell. Bundrage is the IBF LMW champion? I'm going on a diet and jogging (after I smoke this cigarette and finish the beer).

Is the Ring anti British boxers?

mayweather won his last fight at LMW so even though hes behind manny at WW it keeps him equal on the pound for pound?

they probably realise they were a bit premature in having bute so high. gonna take froch more than one consecutive top victory to break the top ten.

Money should be rated higher in the P4P. The manner of their last wins against quality fighters should swing it Money's way imo.

Why would they remove lamont untill it is PROVED that he cheated in the 1st fight. Untill it's official that he did and it becomes a no contest which will happen in due time they cant mark down for it.

Lara should have won, that's fact, but is it right that they have the power to overrule a judge, it may be right but who gives them that power. Williams got the W, it wasn't controversial or tainted, it was just poor judging.

How hope is #4 idk and vanes so highly but looking at the top 10 lists for the WBa, WBC etc then it's more accurate than those

Who cares about The Ring?

The 606v2 official rankings are the only ones that count.

Surely the fact that the judging was poor taints the result?

When do we update the 606v2 rankings?

First week of each month, so I'll be taking your top fives from 4th-8th June.

I predict that David Price will make an appearance and Bute may disappear altogether...
