Thread: Haye ranked 3rd by WBO

David Haye has been ranked 3rd by the WBO and 5th by the WBC thats good considering he has only fought 1 round as a heavyweight.

fab example of boxing at its best lol

Rankings schmankings they can put him wherever they want, we'll all get a feel of where he belongs once he fights. That's what im excited to see.

Doesn't that just mean the WBO is garbage? I mean, they're essentially saying Haye's last fight as a Cruiser puts him above all but two fighters in the heavyweight division. HW is weak, I admit, but not that weak.

No worse than the 3 champions per weight WBA and the IBF.

The WBO is becoming very respectable.

Respectable is the wrong word , less evil and less corrupt is better

The WBA is absolutly the worst.

They are intentionally starting to recognize 3 champions per division. In the Junior Bantamweight division there champion is Christian Mijares. Recently they declared him their "super" champion and then order fights for a vacant "regular" title and another fight for the vacant "interim" title.

They are getting too greedy and will eventually ruin themselves.
Pigs get fat-Hogs get slaughtered.


I think the WBC is probably doing the best job. Although they are also incredible corrupt, at least they make an effort to have their champion be one in the same with the legitimate champion. Look at the Champions recognized by The Ring Magazine, many of them hold WBC titles.
