    Golden Boy owns Ring Magazine. Of course they will be bias.

    What makes it very confusing is that there are only couple of GB fighters on the list. It seems more like personnel are corrupted more than the owners.

    Martin Murry, who is arguably Bumlovkin's best win, couldn't beat that same one legged Sergio Martinez.

    Like I said, the one-legged Martinez that Cotto beat is better than *anyone* on Bumlovkin's resume.

    It's obvious that YDKSAB. Murray fought the one-legged post-Chavez version of Sergio Martinez. When did you start watching boxing? Yesterday?

    Gonzalez at 1 is distasteful to me. I'm far from a Clitschko fan but he deserves it far more than RG.

    Gonzalez looks amazing yes, but wtf has he done to be considered P4P 1? Beat some guy named Estrada?

    Boxrec doesn't even know all the top 20 boxer's stances in the small weight classes. Completely agree that he is a P4P talent but his resume ain't better than these other fighters.

    Cotto beat Sergio, who beat Pavlik, who beat Taylor, who beat Hopkins.

    Cotto IS the man at 160 for now, even if most people believe he would lose to GGG.

    What if the 'man' was a crippled version of himself who had no business in the ring? At least Canelo is a viable threat to him at MW. If he beats him I'll give him plenty of credit.

    He's terrified of the Kazakh guy though, that's for sure.

    :lol:

    Martinez admits he was crippled and not 100% during the Murray fight. I think he said he wasn't even 70%.

    I thought Murray won that fight, but let's be real here, Cotto fought a better version of Martinez and KhtFO!

    The Murray fight happened after Chavez for one also Martinez blew out his knee in the first few res of the Murray bout and Murray still only claim a 50/50 decision loss.

    Ward is simply the best fighter in the world ATM. The man hasn't lost ANYTHING not even a card game since he was like 11 years old. The man was born a winner.

    If Floyd could regain his spot after beating a Lightweight like he's been doing all of his career then Ward can get his spot back after the eurobum he destroyed juSt like in the S6. :)

    Did Ring change the person who was making the p4p list? That might explain why it's so different.

    The funny thing is, you GolovIdiots go on and on about Cotto beating a "crippled" Sergio Martinez - all the while ignoring the FACT that Bumlovkin's best win, which came against Martin Murray, LOST to the same "crippled" Sergio Martinez.

    Cotto has THE best resume @ middleweight. Period, end of.

    FACTS. You BumlovIdiots need to learn how to live with them.
