Put these 5 boxers in order p4p

1. Rigondeaux
2. Gonzalez
3. Lomachenko
4. Ward
5. Golovkin
6. Crawford
7. Kovalev

I'm keeping Rigo number 1 till he either retires or is beaten. You could indeed make the case that Rigo, Gonzalez, Loma, GGG, and Kovalev are the best 5 fighters today. I obviously slightly favour Ward to beat Kovalev. That a guy might not be as sharp after being inactive might be fair enough reason to not rate him p4p, but I'm giving the fighter's ability the benefit of the doubt, so am assuming Ward's still the guy who beat Edwin Rodriguez.

 

Wow, lots of guys ranking Kovalev over Golovkin. Kind of surprised, but OK.

 

I'd go with this list

 

1. Kovalev
2. Golovkin
3. Gonzales
4. Lomachenko
5. Rigondeux

 

Gonzalez
Rigo

You guy can rank the rest.

 

1. Gonzalez
2. Rigo (severely underrated IMO)
3. Kovalev
4. Loma
5. Gennady

I rate rigo's win over Donaire better than any other win by the other fighters mentioned. Him and Loma have been great to watch since they've been taking on world class level competition from early on in their pro careers.

 

Kovalev has much better wins on his resume and has seemingly cleaned out his division with the exception of Adonis Stevenson. His wins over Pascal and Hopkins are better than anything on Gennady's resume. It doesn't help GGG that the MW division just isn't that good, I mean 2 of the big name fighters everyone wants to fight don't even campaign at that weight class (Canelo and Cotto.)

 

rigo
gonzalez
loma
kovalev
ggg

 

Gonzalez
Kovalev
Rigondeaux
Golovkin
Lomachenko

Though give it a couple of years and it could almost be reversed.

 

:deal

 

Firsly...

H2H (VERY debatable)
Gonzales
Rigondeaux
Golovkin
Lomachenko
Kovalev

P4P
Gonzales
Kovalev
Rigondeaux
Lomachenko
Golovkin

 

Rigondeaux hasn't fought anybody of note since he beat Donaire, two years and a half ago. He hasn't fought in almost a year. As talented as he is, he shouldn't even be considered.

 

Gonzales
Lomachenko
Rigo
Golovkin
Kovalev

 

Gonz
Rigo
Loma
GGG
Koval

And no. Floyd, Ward and pac are still in the top 5. Pac isn't retired, and i don't believe Floyd is retired.

Top 5:
1. Floyd
2. Gonzalez
3. Ward
4. Rigo
5. Pac

 

only 9 POsters picked GGG over Kovalev, and those 9 happen to be some of GGGs biggest supporters on a daily basis on here, so i sense alot of biasness from them.. Kova has done way more then GGG and deserves a higher spot P4P.
