Yeah but that´s because Boxrec´s socalled objective rankings based on "technical analysis" are a complete joke. You are rewarded overly for activity via a point system and the end result are some very silly rankings. Living in Denmark, I remember back in the late 90´s Brian Nielsen claiming to be the number 3 heavyweight in the world because "the objective rankings" had him in that spot. He meant Boxrec and he was right...they had only Lewis and Holyfield ahead of him. That was the most ridiculous ranking I had ever seen and I have never been able to forget that.

Seems like a fair ranking to me...Bhop was 5 and Marquez was 4 ...Joe beat Bhop and Marquez just came off a loss so marquez moves down 1 and Joe with a win moves up 2.

Thats my way of thinking. I think #3 is about right. Certainly no lower than 4 IMO
