Every system has flaws and this is no exception - for every rule one creates their will be an anomoly or a way around it.

In this case although I don't agree with the rankings in Felix's ratings they can't be accused of being subjective or reactive.

The rules are set and the ranking move accordingly.

One question for Felix

Jason has beaten Auckland in a One off WMTC world title match - how come Jason doesn't get that rank ?

I have also beaten Hiriwa and have only lost to Jason and Peter Graham - but I don't even have a rank (HAHA shamless self promotion)are these rankings only applied to K-1 match ups?

Hape and Mita aren't fighting anymore to my knowledge so how come they are still ranked

Andrew Peck loast a fight in Croatia to Daniel Marhold but I don't see Marhold ranked and that was an event held under the K-1 banner? (Mind you Andrew was beating the bejesus out of him until he threw the hail mary Hay maker!!!)

Sue My Top 10 pound for pound:

Ray Sefo
Choppa Chapman
Mark Hunt
Jason Suttie
Jordon Tai
Ron Sefo
Jayson Vermoa
Dave Gahn
Rex Rumble
Eddie Tongalahi

which to me says

We need no blood coming through becasue the next few

Daniel Tai
Rapheal Tai
Steve and Nick Misich
Aaron Boyes
John Conway
Chris Johnson
Andrew Peck
Dogie Viney
Sio Vitale
Jope White
Prince Hamid
Mike Angove (yes even me)

have either yet to make the step up to genuine World class level or Tripped at the hurdle (with the exception of Nick, Seve and Rebel - who are semi retired but were a handful for anyone in their peak)even Eddie has yet to put on a World class perfromance in his come back

In the Girls well in my mind only Sue and Julie are real international class the remainder very good nationally but not the next step ...


In summary - we need to get off our complacent buts and work bloody hard because when these guys retire their is going to be a huge gap back the next teir

Some guys like Shannon Foreman, Nick Tungatoa, Aaron Dixon, Sonny Moa, Sefa Fue, Richie HArdcore and co are still a wee way off but where is our next Ray Sefo, our next Choppa or Jason Suttie ....

Not meaning to be rude - but compared to the depth in Aussie we need to work bloody hard or we will have a drought very soon ...
