Nice to see you have Rigo as the top man in the division.

Yep he still meets all the requirements of my Ratings Policy to remain Champion.

Looking at your list the super lightweight is vacant and Crawford is below Prov. That means Terrance has a lot of work to do before he moves to welterweight.

Matthysse and Herrera could possibly meet on the Canelo/ Khan under-card, which could possibly see both removed from the 140 ratings. Matthysse has expressed his intentions to campaign at 147 and Herrera's reaches a years inactivity at this weight in July.

Matthysse will most likely exit after he fights at Welter and a loss for either guy could drop them below Crawford.

Also Provodinkov reach 1 year of inactivity at this weight in April.

So potentially Crawford could jump all the way to 2nd by May, leaving a fight with #1 Postol as a qualifier for the vacant Championship.

Jessie Vargas enters the Welterweight rankings after an impressive stoppage victory.



Ratings updated:




HEAVYWEIGHT:

Luis Ortiz (25-0, 22 KOs) strengthens his ranking at fourth with a sixth round knockout over veteran gatekeeper Tony Thompson (40-7, 27 KOs). Ortiz dropped Thompson in rounds one and three; before dropping him for the count in round six. Lucas Browne (24-0, 21 KOs) enters the ratings at number nine after getting off the canvas in round six to drop and then finish fringe contender Ruslan Chagaev (34-3-1, 21 KOs) in the tenth round. Previous number nine Vyacheslav Glaskov (21-1-1, 13 KOs) exits for the time being.

WELTERWEIGHT:

Jessie Vargas (27-1, 10 KOs) enters at number seven after scoring a ninth round stoppage over Sadam Ali (22-1, 13 KOs) who previously held that spot. Ali exits.

BANTAMWEIGHT:

Shinsuke Yamanaka (25-0-2, 17 KOs) had to get off the canvas twice in round three, but floored number six Liborio Solis (23-4-1, 10 KOs) in the second and ninth rounds to win a tough twelve round unanimous decision. Yamanaka trades places with Jamie McDonnell (27-2-1, 12 KOs).

LIGHT-FLYWEIGHT:

Ganigan Lopez (27-6, 17 KOs) rockets into the ratings at fourth on the strength of his twelve round majority decision over previous number three Yu Kimura (18-3-1, 3 KOs) in a fight where Lopez was the clear winner. Kimura falls to sixth. Moises Fuentes (23-2-1, 12 KOs) moves up a place to third. Everyone rated six through ten last week shuffles down a place to accommodate Lopez’ entry; with Piapharob Kokietgym (32-1, 25 KOs) falling out of the ratings.

MINIMUMWEIGHT:

Number two Wanheng Menayothin (41-0, 16 KOs) stopped unranked Go Odaira (12-5-3, 1 KO) in five rounds. No changes.
