Brook at #10, Ward at #2. How messed up is the Ring p4p list?

    Klitschko being #6 is a bigger joke. When Wlad last lost a fight most of the guys in the top 10 were complete nobodies, and Wlad fought top opposition ever since without losing a single fight. I mean the guy lost his last fight a decade ago while no one knew what a "Kovalev" is 3-4 years ago and Kovalev ranks above him. lol? The only guy who could actually rank above him was Mayweather and now that he's retired it's absolutely Klitschko who should be one.

    I mean look at Roman Gonzalez. Ok he's great, we all love to watch him. But the guy fought some very poor fighters over the years, 4 of his last 9 bouts were against guys ranked under top 50, I'm really curious to hear by what standard he's ranked far above Klitschko when their overall level of opposition is not remotely comparable.

    The one-legged Martinez that Cotto beat is better than *anyone* on Bumlovkin's resume.

    FACTS. Learn to live with them...

    No, any top 20 middleweight would beat that version of Martinez.

    But not any top middleweight did. Cotto did. And he became the man in the division by doing so.

    Cotto destroyed a demoralized weight drained version of Geale. Murray would get a win against Martinez in any country except Argentina, and that was a much healthier, still moving well pre-Chavez version of Martinez.

    Wlad
    Gonzalez
    Rigo
    Kovalev
    Ggg
    Crawford
    Pac
    Canelo
    Cotto
    Stevenson

    Actually really struggled to make this list, I think the next couple of years it'll be intirely different but without the wins on the resume some of those fighters can't be included.

    kovalev should be #1, he's obviously the most dangerous active fighter.
    rigondeaux shouldn't even be on it, he only has 15 fights............................
    Ward shouldn't be on it, he hasn't done anything in years.
    brook should be #2 he's the best at 147.
    golovkin should be #3, he's obviously the best at 160.

    This is actually quite a good one. Ward should not be on that list, that is obvious. Ward hasn´t fought or dominated anybody or any division in the past 3 years. He hasn´t even defended his belt, he hasn´t done anything worth mentioning. And his wins in super6 are good but not excellent (lacks any P4P fighter).

    Same time Wlad is #6 - Man who has dominated his division over 10 years and of the last 7 opponents 6 were undefeated.
