    14 fights is a ton of footage to know how good or great a fighter is.
    his skill are great but his chin is going to be his downfall soon.

    how many matches does it take you to see what a fighter brings . I need 2 or 3

    Golovkin has the p4p #1 offense, but not the resume.

    unless it's an all time p4p list it's not a validation of your resume, rather it tells you where fighters are in a point of time. Usually it's a reflection of your last fight based on performance and the quality of opposition.

    What good is talent if you don't beat top guys? If that were the case Linares would be top 5 p4p. He's one of the most skilled fighters out today. I love GGG, but he's not #1 p4p .

    My p4p list would and should be as credible as any boxing 'expert' out there. You hear time and time again how good this good boy is from boxers to analysts. This guy is the real deal. If you rank fighters in the p4p list down to resume then you have got the premise wrong! Its who is the best fighter on the planet due to his skill set and durability. If it was down to resume then Froch should be ranked in the top 5 at least! But he isnt by the majority because we see holes in his game. In 31 fights, i have yet to see a single flaw in GGG's work. He could be in any weight class and i'd favor him to win

    No offense but you're an idiot. GGG number 1 p4p because of skill sets and durability? Don't ever talk about boxing again.

    Ggg has beaten all tune up fighters which none of them are remotely close to very good fighters. Inactivity or not floyd resumes no matter what u say is way better then ggg resumes. Ward resumes regardless of inactivity is still way better then ggg resumes. Walter beating Donaire is way better then any fighters ggg beat. I understand guys like cotto, canelo, Chavez ain't knocking on ggg door but there's 1 fighter that's knocking ggg which ggg ain't open and that's a real threat Andre Ward. Ward has been dying to fight Ggg. If ggg has any guts move up at 168 pounds and fight number 2 imo p4p ward. There's nobody at 160 pounds that is a threat to ggg I mean nobody.

    Name me a current fighter who you would fear letting your boxer in the ring with than GGG. Regardless of weight! There is not another boxer out there right now that has as good a background and is this well rounded. Loma is a shout but he doesn't possess that killer instinct. Name me a fighter you would favor over GGG if weight wasnt an issue

    You say GGG hasnt got the resume to be up there but you want him to jump up a weight class and fight the best there?! Sort it out! He hasn't even finished cleaning up the division yet when there are still big names floating around

    What names is floating around that will fight ggg? Cotto won't fight Ggg. Canelo thanks to oscar won't fight ggg. Who at 160 pounds is a threat? As far as I'm concern he clean out a very weak division. Time to move up in weight and fight a real threat in Andre Ward according to Jim Lampley last night wants to fight ggg. Stop wasting ppls time by fighting a none threat fighters that are journey men.

    Andre Ward. His style would give ggg nightmares. Ward is too slick, too fast for ggg.

    GGG is fighting in a era where there aren't any good MW as of now. I really don't see anything special about him.
