    New and very quick P4P list and ratings update on the GBP Magazine site, after waiting for so long to do the previous update.

    Lomachenko is now their official 135lbs champion, with Linares as their #1 at the weight, Garcia at #2 and Easter 3.
    But this is their new P4P list...

    1) Golovkin
    2) Lomachenko
    3) Crawford
    4) Alvarez*
    5) Garcia

    Didn't expect them to keep GGG at the #1 spot as Lomachenko seemed to distance himself from them with his latest win and record.
    Looks like this actually came from their ratings panel instead of Oscar having a hand in it.

    Number 2 for Loma is way to high. Who has Loma beat that warrants a place on the p4p list?

    2 P4P Top 20 Fighters perhaps?

    Name one P4P fighter Crawford has beaten?

    zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz

    most boring post ever! you might not think he is no1 ok I can deal with that but to say he has fought no one? He has better names or just as good names as GGG

    Linares
    Walters
    Gary Russell Jnr
    Rigo

    all within 11 fights as a pro.

    Lomachenko was their p4p #3 before the Linares fight, so now they have moved him one step up. It's fine for me.

    I'll add two more reasons.

    Jason Sosa beat Javier Fortuna by crushing late KO, Fortuna arguably just took Easter's 0 and didn't get the nod. And no that's not an unpopular opinion. Check the RBR. I was probably generous to Easter and he only took it by a round on my card. And I hate Fortuna.

    Marriaga arguably took Valdez's 0 and didn't get credit for that either.

    I'll take GGG & VL as #1 & 2. Though I personally have it the other way around.

    Loma should be above Golovkin

    Crawford felled a high ranking general from the Wakandan army.

    I know you and others like you have been parroting that since 2015. But it’s really played out now and doesn’t make much sense at this point. Lol I know it must hurt! But Loma is the most skilled fighter in the sport and just set a ****ing record last Sat. Get over it :)


    I know I know... “But SALIDO DOE!”
