Correct me if I'm wrong, but isn't that the method that boxrec use to calculate their rankings?

No wander they say they don't enforce mandatories, any ranking system based on the boxrec method would produce even worse mandatories than the IBF!
was looking at their rankings now, and they look pretty spot on! apart from miranda in MW i would say the rest (that i know) all all around about where they should be.
