In the domain of sports, as most everywhere else, it's an obvious and self-evident truth that the space between a champion and runner-up is usually the shortest possible distance to a title, and that second place always falls between first and third. But in boxing -- an infinite source of surprises and oddities -- this isn't always the case. Too often, second place (and with it, the right to challenge for first place) isn't given to the most deserving fighter, partly because of the multiplicity of rankings, lists and other methods of classification used in boxing.
