    Disgusting...

    He had 1 win over a top 10 middle (Macklin)

    Ishida who is not even top 20 ranked

    Rosado who he DRAGGED UP to 160

    Stevens who was top 20 160

    Over Kovalev? Stevenson?.Mayweather?

    Quality>Quantity no doubt

    Stevenson's the rightful one.

    Ring Magazine hasn't named their FOY yet. GGG won the fan choice award via a poll on The Ring website.

    They were stuck anyway, it should be between Rigondeaux (but he only fought twice), Stevenson/Kovalev (Stevenson having the edge for KO1 Dawson), Bradley or Golovkin.

    I'd probably give it to Bradley given the overall quality of his wins, and the fact that he firmly established himself as a tough elite fighter.

    Golovkin wins his fights IMPRESSIVELY, he doesn't run and pitty-pat for dull decision wins like Floyd.

    TRUE, he does go into his fights to win and he does win well, I thought his win over Macklin was a very impressive win due to Macklin being a tough fighter
