    I don't even give a fuck about titles anymore. I know a good match up when I see one regardless of belts on the line.

    Khan has had things handed to him on a plate since day one so we shouldn't be surprised.

    ...and the sad part about it is that the IBF and WBA are no better at rankings. Neither is the WBO for that matter, but they seem to move guys through their ranks a little quicker.

    Here's my take on them:
    1. WBA keeps recycling former champions and has beens.
    2. WBC keeps HBO ticket sellers at the top of their list, which counts for two/maybe three guys. Everyone else is dog crap!
    3. IBF doesn't know what the fuck they're doing, at all...
    4. WBO moves guys too quickly in their rankings.

    Its not as if this has not happened before. Fighters appear magically in the division rankings they have not fought in for a super fight to be made but that's fighters in most cases that have sealed a legacy under the weight they are moving to. Like Hatton prior to Collazo.

    ... and what I can't understand with these organizations is "how can you have an unrated or non-ranked spot on the list?"... you have a #1 ranked, but don't have a #2 ranked, but have a #3 and 4 ranked? WTH

    They are like crack dealers.

    I can see situations but it should be based on the past not as an exit strategy and sanctioning fee. Armstrong had a case to fight Ross because of his 135 domination.
