All good, I agree as Mabuza was stopped I feel Agbeko should remain ahead

Mabuzza was stopped. But he was winning going into the 12th round. I would place him ahead of Agbeko

I would drop him only from one position a lost that includes some debatable events (the headbutt for instance) but nothing more, if he makes a good fight against a significant opponent, he will have the right to climb up again otherwise he might face a significant drop for next time.

True Mabuza was ahead, but so was Taylor with Froch. Still got stopped. Agbeko fought a hell of a fight & saw the final bell

The question for me is more 'How far should Nonito Donaire drop?'.

It still irks me beyond measure that he is considered 6th (FUCKING 6TH!!) in the current ring rankings for beating one single name opponent.

He's not even top 30 p4p and he barely struggled past that unknown Rafael Concepcion last time out, a fighter with a 13-3-1 record.

I know I always harp on about this but he's only ever fought a single opponent who had ever been world champion, Darchinyan aside he has never fought a world class opponent.

Darchinyan has already been shown up as the limited, crude bully he always was, and his conqueror Agbeko has also since tasted defeat.

I guess for the Ring to be consistent Yohhny Perez, for beating the man who beat the man that Donaire beat must jump into the top 10 p4p also.

It's fucking absurd I tell you
