    The competition between MW Golovkin and LHW Kovalev for the highest P4P ranking goes to Kovalev, by an American country mile.

    Kovalev makes no excuses for his CV by whining how much he is being ducked, although many have ducked Kovalev. He has still achieved more in the ring than GGG.
    Between Kov and GGG, Kovalev has not only faced the better competition, but in the future will have much bigger fights than GGG; Ward-Kovalev and than Kovalev Vs Stevenson are both bigger than any possible GGG fight, especially since GGG ducks all the elite opponents such as Ward, Hopkins, and Lara.
    If Kovalev were MW, no doubt he would have faced Lara and every other fighter that GGG has ducked.

    P4P higher ranking definitely goes to Kovalev over the marketing hype, GGG.

    No.

    At the moment, GGG > Kovalev p4p although h2h I think Kovalev beats him.

    Kovalev's uncertain performance vs Chilemba made him look beatable. GGG has not had a similar performance.

    If Kovalev beats Ward, then he's the man without question.

    It's P4P man. That means it's basically the eye test - informed as little or much as you like for resume. In short it's entirely subjective and essentially pointless. If someone wants to put GGG over Kovalev what you gonna do about it? Call the ranking police?

    You should have thought a little prior to posting.
    To measure any quantity accurately one should utilize a scale and that scale should be calibrated with a standard reference.

    In boxing, that reference is levels of competition. The higher the level of competition faced and conquered, the higher the position.

    KOVALEV is greater than Golovkin, since EVERYONE knows Golovkin has faced no one.

    Kovelev: ATGs elites faced: 1
    Golovkin: NONE


    Ever subjective qualification requires adequate references.
    What's Golovkin's reference; Wade and now Brook? :lol:

    While I agree to an extent. There is something to be said that Hopkins was 49 and had previously lost to Dawson.

    Like both fighters.

    If we go by the resume, Kovalev shoud be placed higher on the p4p listing.

    If we go by the eye test, Golovkin is higher.

    I believe the reason Kovalev was able to get better fights is because his opponents see some vulnerabilities. They probably think that if they land their best shots, Kovalev will go down. We have seen him down.

    As for Golovkin, even if you land your best shot, nothing will happen.

    If we scale him to a little to lhw, I believe he destroys everyone there quite easily.

    That version of Hopkins is a better win than any of Golovkin's opponents.
    The fact is, Golovkin ducked the Hopkins fight even before BHOP fought Kovalev.
    Anyone who ducks facing an old living ATG does not deserve a mention as P4P. :smoke

    My "eye test" says that Golovkin is a B level fighter.
    He is nowhere near a "highly technical" as casual and immigrant announcers state.

    It can be said that Lara, BHOP and Ward see the same thing in Golovkin and why they called him out.
    BHOP couldn't get the fight with Golovkin as they ducked, so they went to Kovalev.
    Ward couldn't get the fight with Golovkin, so they went to LHW to Kovalev.

    Lara will move to 160 and Golovkin will immediately jump up to SMW. :yep

    No P4P fighter there.

    Not sure if you're joking..

    As for Golovkin ducking, you've got it wrong. Everyone at middleweight ducked him.
    Ward is not a middleweight, nor is Hopkins. I can also said that Ward ducked him at he hbo meeting.
    As for Lara, whats the point ? Already lost


    Like someone said, Shockmaster is banned for now. This forum dont need another one. In his case I believe he is blatantly trolling but I hope not to many people follow his lead.
