Ruiz has fought three times since the start of 2006. A lost to Chagaev, and wins over Otis Tisdale and Jameel McCline, and both of them are not ranked by the WBA (at least not in the top 15 that was posted). And going back to Dec 2005, he lost to Valuev.

Meehan is 5-0 since the start of 2006, all stoppages (4 in the 3rd round, one was stopped in between rounds 6 and 7). 1 of them was DaVarryl Williamson, currently ranked 13th by the WBA, the rest are not ranked.

How can anyone make the argument that Ruiz should be ranked higher than Meehan? I honeslty don't see either being #2 and #3 on anyone's list, but if the choice is between them, I can't see how Ruiz is ranked higher.
