Thoughts?

 

i saw that the other day

put the magazine down and walked away

like i said on another thread, magazines are outdated, and the best way to keep in touch is by going on a forum and finding the best posters

 

so ward is the number 2 p4p fighter? ok im not mad at that..i know hes up there

but now this list is garbage to the ggg fanboys?

what happened to "ggg has beaten several top 10 ring middleweights recently"

 

Is it just me or their rankings do not follow any set of logical order? They just randomly pick whatever the **** at the time?

 

So beating E-rod and Paul Smith nets you #2 spot? Okay...

 

I don't agree GGG should be so high up, never have. At best, he's at the lower end of the p4p 10 spectrum simply because he never beat a p4p caliber or an elite fighter in general.

 

The Ring's list is laughable. How much did Eddie Hearn pay to get Kell Brook on that list? Why did they move Klitschko down a few spots when he hasn't lost in a while? He deserves to be in the top 3 at the very least. Yamanaka is a cool little fighter but there's far more deserving fighters who should be ranked ahead of him. Golovkin does not deserve to be in the top 5.

 

Best posters just have an opinion like ringmag. There is nothing objective in a p4p list. Before they used to base it more on resume. Now it is just how they feel about fighters potential plus a bit of resume. They just downgraded Wlad in the p4p rankings for no-reason he's been winning for decades. Golovkin is top5 for whatever reason. I'm a big fan of GGG and I'm happy about the publicity this spots gives him. But he should be lower top 10 at best. The only good thing in this list is, Gonzales at the first place. Than no Estrada for whatever reason and Golovkin and Kovalev way to high.

 

Wlad's a top 2 P4P fighter with Roman now.

Really no argument whatsoever to have Ward or GGG ahead of him.

 

And no Monster Inoue renders it utterly worthless.

 

Why did they shift Wlad 3-4 places down? Was their previous rating before Jennings fight and they figured they need to bump him down after that?

 

Best posters on here have no agenda

Of course GGG should be top 5. In my book he is no.1, and im a JMM disciple. You trying to say hes not worthy cause the other "champions" are too scared to fight him?

 

cafe...my prob isnt with ggg being ranked or where he is ranked.....but i know the ggg superfans will have a prob with wards ranking

"hes been inactive and only beaten paul smith...this mag is garbage blah blah"....yet theyll say "ggg has beaten like 5 ring magazine ranked middleweights in a row"

 

TBH, I think their divisional rankings are quite good. But P4P it really is garbage, TBRB is much better for that.
