    He's approaching it slowly but still easily more than 10 guys more deserving than Golovkin.

    Not at all let him do something note worthy first then we can have this discussion. Everybody keeps saying GGG should be patient and wait for a big fight well fans need to take there on advice instead of trying to crown him without him first getting the credentials to deserve it.

    Broner got at least a few spots deep into the top 19 by doing less. Including some gift decisions along the way.

    Dominating and knocking out 5 top 10 contenders is enough for a spot on the tail end of the list, although I wouldn't argue if someone had him a little lower. If a fan uses any kind of a H2H component to rank fighters, GGG certainly deserves a spot.

    But nobody in the world agreed with The Ring putting him on their list as he was utterly undeserving, so that is irrelevant unless you are saying that you thought Broner was a top 10 P4P'er... in which case, well, I'm sorry for you.

    Danny Garcia??? The man who got beat by Hererra and cherrypicked the 77th ranked guy for a title defence?

    He did beat the GGG of the 140lb division before that.

    He is the best asian fighter, so he should be above Pacroid.
