Pound-for-Pound Update

There are two changes in the Saturday Night Boxing Pound-for-Pound list this month. With Terence Crawford's dominant win over fellow junior welterweight titleholder Viktor Postol, he rockets up the Rankings, moving from #16 all the way to #5. Crawford has now become the top fighter in two different divisions. Also, Carl Frampton enters the Rankings at #19. Beating fellow junior featherweight titleholder Scott Quigg earlier in the year and 126-lb. champ Leo Santa Cruz last month, Frampton will be a strong candidate for 2016 Fighter of the Year honors. With Frampton's promotion, Shinsuke Yamanaka exits the Rankings.
