Since Santiago is in the pool in a different weight class he stays where he is.

How we handle this is if he loses twice in a row we vote. If the fight was at Super Feather he would be voted to stay or drop right away.

Jason Litzau vs. Rocky Juarez - Boxrec Boxing Encyclopaedia - won a decision over Rocky Juarez when the fight was stopped short after a mouse under Litzau's eye (ruled caused by headbutt) made the fight go to the scorecards in the 7th round

Yeah...he's put together a nice three fight win streak. Juarez, Edwards and Kimbrough(at 135).

This one got missed last week. Since he lost his 2nd fight in a row whilst being in the rankings, we can vote whether or not to drop Juarez. I'm gonna vote yes, because I think the Caballero/Yordan winner is a more worthy owner of a place in the rankings.

Yep...bye

I say yes, there's tons of talent to replace him with I say make him WIN his way back up, you know he's gonna get another chance.

I know Killer is going through the divisions, but I'm going to try do my bit to deal with the rankings. Any division that drops below 9 ranked members will get a vote up on it, if that vacancy has lasted longer than a month. There is no leaving vacancies open on anything less than 9, otherwise weak divisions like this & LHW will end up with about 7 fighters in it.

So who fills the # spot?

Masaaki Serie - Boxer - Had a bad run of losses, but has recovered to become a solid contender.

Kyohei Tamakoshi - Boxer - Like Serie, he had a poor start to this career, before picking up recently admittedly with opposition not on the same level as Serie, over whom a win would vindicate him.

Rogers Mtagwa - Boxer - I expect everyone here is familar with Mtagwa. A great exciting warrior, however he's coming off a pair of losses, to Lopez in a close fight & then to Gamboa at a higher weight.

Victor Fonseca - Boxer - Almost certainly the best prospect in the division, has beaten some good fighters on his way up like Al Seeger.

Hiromasa Ohashi - Boxer - Inconsistent journeyman, beaten in his last fight by Akifumi Shimoda

Akifumi Shimoda - Boxer - A very promising fighter. The only blots on his record are a majority loss and a loss & draw by technical decision, all against decent opposition.

Yan Barthelemy - Boxer - Very hyped at one stage, Barthelemy was possibly rushed due to his amateur success. Lost a decision to Ernie Marquez, and then was stopped by bigger Jorge Diaz after taking a short-notice fight on the Lopez/Mtagwa undercard.

Who fills #9 vacancy at 122?

(only those receiving votes listed)

Victor Fonseca (2 votes) : Galaxy, Killersheep

Akifumi Shimoda (3 votes) : Cleon, JazMerking (+1)

Akifumi Shimoda takes the #9 spot by a vote of 3-2

Soto has appeared to have made the Lightweight division his home now that he's got a full world title there, so should he remain at 130?

Soto is removed from the 130 rankings, and moved solely to 135.

http://i5.photobucket.com/albums/y18...therweight.jpg

Does Solis remain ranked at 126? He hasn't fought at the weight since last July, and hasn't won there since last January. More importantly he has stated that he cannot campaign at the weight any more and has moved up to Super-Featherweight.

http://i5.photobucket.com/albums/y18...therweight.jpg

Who should fill the vacancy?

Humberto Mauro Gutierrez - Boxer is coming off a UD loss to Vitali Tajbert, however he holds a credible win over Sergey Gulyakevich. His next fight is against former Humberto Soto victim, Aristides Perez - Boxer.

Vitali Tajbert - Boxer has a recent win over Gutierrez, who had beaten the only man to beat Tajbert in Gulyakevich. He next fights the Mexican veteran Hector Velazquez - Boxer, who has been in with some tough fighters.

Jason Litzau - Boxer holds a close technical decision over Rocky Juarez recently, however the Minnesota fighter is on a good run of form.

Siarhei Guliakevich - Boxer has been taking a slow road back from his defeat to Gutierrez and has been fighting just over the limit in recent times.

Jorge Solis - Boxer took a one-sided decision over Mario Santiago this past Saturday to follow on from body-punching KO over Likar Ramos.

http://i5.photobucket.com/albums/y18...therweight.jpg

Here's some fighters who might be worthy of entering the pool at 130.

Argenis Mendez - Boxer who scored a majority decision over the tough Martin Honorio this weekend.

Daniel Jimenez - Boxer has come back from defeats to top comp.

Eloy Perez - Boxer is very good prospect with solid wins over David Rodela and Gilberto Sanchez Leon.

Devis Boschiero - Boxer EBU champion who has occasionally stepped above journeyman level.

Does Mario Santiago remain in the pool at 130? He has now lost 2 in a row.

Mario Santiago - Boxer

None of these dudes really:eek:
But Perez scrapes in

Does Caballero remain rated at this weight-class, his last fight was a Featherweight.

http://i5.photobucket.com/albums/y18...therweight.jpg

After dropping an SD in his rematch with Orlando Salido, how far does the Mexican veteran fall?
After his SD loss to Orlando Salido

http://i5.photobucket.com/albums/y18...therweight.jpg

The above image is incorrect, as Jorge Solis has exited the ratings, however Orlando Salido will enter following his SD win over Cruz. So who enters?

Israel Vazquez - Boxer faces old nemesis and #9 Rafael Marquez this weekend for the 4th time. However, in his only previous appearance at the weight, Magnifico struggled to a late KO over journeyman Angel Priolo.

Satoshi Hosono - Boxer lost an MD at 122 in his last major fight, although he beat a 1-0 fighter at SFW in his last outing. It is unclear what weightclass he plans to fight at.

Daniel Ponce de Leon - Boxer won a tight UD over perennial gatekeeper Cornelius Lock in his last fight, which followed a vicious bodyshot KO over Orlando Cruz. The tough Mexican's power has dropped at 126, but he's beaten decent fighters.

Bernabe Concepcion - Boxer is coming off a close UD over Mario Santiago. Prior to that he'd been DQ'd for KOing #3 Steven Luevano after the bell. His next fight is against #1 Juan Manuel Lopez.

Fernando Beltran Jr - Boxer is unbeaten in 2 years, but those include controversial wins over Takalani Ndlovu and Mickey Roman. Has 2 fights scheduled in the next month.

Antonio Escalante - Boxer is coming off a FOTY candidate win over Miguel Roman. Has beaten good opp at the weight.

Jhonny Gonzalez - Boxer continues his comeback from the Nishioka KO. Killer's favourite fighter recently won a WBC eliminator and in beating Antonio Davis, took out a guy who only loses to quality fighters.

Celestino Caballero - Boxer looked excellent in his one-sided demolition job of the talented Daud Yordan in April. It appears he may be making 126 his new home, which can only bode well for prospective fights.

I would say let's see what weight he fight's at next.

Caballero's the man!

That was my pick as well, Escalante came in second for me, if another opening comes up he's getting my vote.

After being stopped in 3 by old rival, Rafa Marquez, does Izzy stay rated?
