Are we still going to use the ring rankings or should we do our own?

**Soonermark890** Tue Sep 20, 2011 11:43 am

Just wondering. We have done these in the past and it does take a lot of work. We could do it in a number of ways. Voting (this is the hardest), Points system (also difficult), or we could have one person assigned a couple of divisions each. Let me know. I just thought it could be fun and now that ring is corrupt might as well.

Also if we choose to have one person do a division I volunteer Grant for the HW division. Very Happy

Oh also I think we should also be like the ring and have a champ named then the top 10 if we do it.

I think we should vote for our own. This site should have their own Boxing and MMA rankings and not rely on other sites.

Sooner, I think we should do our own rankings.

Just sent you a message. Also, I think a P4P rating system is a good one. As far as seperate divisions go, I would recognize a champion and that would be it. I mean, could you imagine trying to form a top ten contender list of the HW division? That's a pretty boring assignment. LOL

Thats why we give that one to Grant LOL He would love it.

I think we should have a champion for each division with the top 5 contenders.

Something like-

Heavyweight 201lb +

Champion: Wladimir Klitschko

1) Vitali Klitschko
2) Alexander Povetkin
3) Tomasz Adamek
4) David Haye
5) Eddie Chambers

Up to you guys. I asked a few weeks back if I should remove the Ring rankings, and I got a "wait and see" response.

I do think we should do our own P4P regardless. But yeah, doing entire division rankings for 17 divisions is a lot of work. I say we stick with Ring for now, since they're still universally regarded, but if they start to become a joke, then by all means.

we would come up with better rankings ourselves because we arent corrupt.

I for one couldn't do a top 10 in all of the weight classes. Anything below bantam and I'm lost.

ESPN does 10 down to 126 pounds and then 5 guys plus other contenders for all weights below 126.

I'm cool with whatever. 5 for all, 10 for all, 10 for the ones we know 122 or 126 and above, and 5 for rest, whatever....

Sooner-I sent you a message as well.

I'm up for whatever, but I don't watch enough boxing to make an informed decision about all of the guys in all of the divisions.
