The Ring's ratings panel have decided upon changes in five divisions after an action-packed weekend of boxing.
There's movement in both the middleweight and light heavyweight divisions after Denzel Bentley and Viddal Riley picked up big wins on the Deontay Wilder-Derek Chisora undercard in London.
There are also changes to several of the lower weight classes following Andres Cortes' win over Eridson Garcia in the main event of Zuffa Boxing 05, while Marlon Tapales was upset by Yukinori Oguni in Tokyo.
