Utter lunacy imo.

But wait the story is even more absurd than that.

I mean number 4 in the world p4p you'd expect him to be the Ring champ in his weight class right? Right? WRONG!

According to the Ring he is rated number 4 p4p and get this, NUMBER 7! in his own weight class

I don't know what these guys have been smoking but it's got to stop.
Totally ridiculous. Agreed.
It's really weird, he beat Vic in 2007 and since then has fought nobody of note at all.

Meanwhile Isreal Vazquez has fought 3 times, won them all including twice defeating Raphael Marquez. Both Vazquez and Marquez were in the p4p rankings when these fights took place but Vazquez has now been dumped out of the top 20.

Bernard Hopkins has also fought 3 times since 07 including ending the unbeaten run of Kelly Pavlik and beating Roy Jones. Result, he's now been removed from the ring top 10 rankings.

Chris John defeated J M Marquez in 2006 and despite being undefeated since has also long been dropped out of the top 20 p4p.


Yet Nonito Donaire who beat Vic Darchinyan BEFORE Darchinyan was in the Ring top 10 p4p continues to rise and rise off the back of other people's results.

Vic wins a world title in another weight class. Donaire goes UP the rankings, NOT Vic. Hopkins beats Roy Jones, Donaire goes ABOVE him, now Mosley loses to Mayweather and Donaire is the beneficary again.

It's riduclous and embarrassing.

I hope Darchinyan smashes him next time out to emphasise how absurdly overated he has been.
