Transnational Boxing Rankings Board | The first bell of a new era
its a nice looking site and very well put together
thing is it is trying to fix a problem but really just making it worse
Boxing doesnt really need another top 10 lb4lb method of ranking boxers as there are already about 10
The ring seems to be the dominant Organisation when accumilating the fighters
good luck to them tho, if they can get enough people on board and they can emerge as the new leading light ahead of the ring then fine and dandy
to be honest tho i hope they dont, i hope someone does something official like puts an official stamp on the ring being the official one and then we wont have to listen to this non official shit from nowhere else no more
Kind of agree that it does dirty the waters a little more but today the term p4p is simply short for favourite list. I never use the term because its been bastardized to the point that its lost its historic meaning. Way to many belts also with very few unification's let alone undisputed champions.Quote:

The fact that the Pound for Pound Rating is done by one man at Ring Magazine instead of a panel of journalists shocked me. I always assumed that it would be by general consensus.
