    You picked Murray to win ****head, so you must rank him pretty highly. Your logic is non existent.

    Best Kovalev has beaten is a 50 year old and another guy that the 50 year old out classed. Golovkin has dominated absolutely everyone. But it is mainly due to how his promoters manipulate the ranking and frankly Golovkin has the more powerful and well connected promoters whilst Kovalevs are frankly quite small whom where close to going out of business until Kovalev turned when no one wanted to promote him in the US.

    Kovalev is a clear top 10 P4P'er while Golovkin's placement, for me, is outside the top 10.

    Hopkins is an old man he is a testament to the weakness of the division. Pascal is tough as hell yeah but he is not world class. Hopkins is a legend without a doubt but he is 50.... You do realise Hopkins is heavier than anyone GGG has ever thought...

    Because its partially a popularity contest. Kovalev has faced better opposition, in a thicker weight class. So he should be rated higher on any P4P list than Golovkin.

    Agreed. If boxing rankings were judged by who's the most popular fighter then GGG Would most likely be the best in the world.... lol but uh.............. this ain't no popularity contest!:good

    If you ever knew my logic and how it's applied, I'd kill myself.

    I think it's just a matter of time. For many experts Kovalev is already in their list.

    English must not be your first language.

    Puerto Rico is a part of the US, Genius.

    Now go back and finish drinking your $1.09 bottle of wine...
