Contrary to our report in Sunday's issue which stated that Andrew `Sixhead' Lewis' has been dropped from the top 10 of the World Boxing Association's (WBA) top 10 list, in fact it has been confirmed that Lewis has been dropped from the top 15 of the World Boxing Organisation's list and not the WBA.
In the WBA's release, Lewis was ranked number five prior to last month's defeat at the hands of Antonio Margarito.
The 33-year-old Lewis was stopped in the second round of the fight staged in Las Vegas on February 8.
His ranking is expected to decrease when the WBA releases its latest ratings.
Lewis became the first Guyanese fighting under the Golden Arrowhead to win a world title when he knocked out James page in round seven on February 17, 2001.
