Ok he's not the greatest welterweight in the world but he's a belt holder so why is only rated 9th by the Ring?

It's not as if there's a whole load of talent above him either.

Vivian Harris at 4 Gavin Rees at 3

And Soulamayne M'baye, Juan Lazcano, Lovemore Ndou AND Demetrius Hopkins all above him

I'm baffled, anyone care to explain?

Oh and don't just reply with 'he sucks', I'm not really disagreeing, I just want to know why the Ring thinks those above him suck less?
