The RING's ratings panel hasn't been reliable in years. They used to have a large panel putting together their divisional rankings. I think now they only have one guy putting together their divisional & p4p rankings like ESPN.
I thought most people were using TBRB these days
RANKINGS | Transnational Boxing Rankings Board
I seen their divisional rankings used on ESPN & PBC programs...i think HBO & Showtime too. They have a large ratings panel of 25-30 journalists all over the world like the RING used to have. And their rankings are far more accurate and consistent...and they don't recognize alphabet soup titlists...only lineal champs.
let me check where AB is listed at 140 first to see if these are reliable
So I checked and......
Under Benavidez, Herrera, and Provodnikov?
The disrespect of AB continues
