    This is a good question. Not much separating the two's resumes.

    Golovkin's defeated:

    Top 10 Matthew Macklin
    Top 5 Daniel Geale
    Top 5 Marco Rubio
    Top 5 Martin Murray
    Top 5 David Lemiuex

    Kovalev's defeated:

    Top 10 Gabriel Campillo
    Top 5 Nathan Cleverly
    Top 3 LHW and P4P Top 15 Bernard Hopkins
    Top 10/15 Jean Pascal 2x

    *Per TBRB's archives


    Golovkin has the deeper resume but Kov' has the best single win. Gotta lean towards Golovkin here.

    Golovkin is P4P better no doubt. Better offense, better defense, better chin, better footwork, better ring IQ, better balance.

    You guys are putting way to much credit on the Bhop win, Hopkins was so slow in that fight. When Bhop said he was an alien that didn't age - it was hype, don't believe it! It's impossible that he was anything close to prime.

    Kovalev is my #2 P4P fighter at the moment, behind Lomachenko. GGG is bottom 10.

    Kovalev and I don't care where GGG's opponents were ranked, Kovalev's are better all around.

    Okay you re****, I'm not going to have a long drawn out argument with you. Rankings mean far less to me than quality resumes and obvious overall skill level.

    Bernard Hopkins is EONS better than anyone GGG has come close to facing, even the version that Kovalev fought and Pascal is right below BHop, Cleverly, Mohammedi and Campillo all have better resumes than Stevens, Rosado, Geale and Lemieux and I did a long ass thread defending GGG's resume. So leave me the f*** alone.

    Those were the TBRB's rankings. Take it up with them.

    And Hopkins was p4p ranked by McCarson at Bleacher Report.

    I'll get GGG, but i believe he needs to fight tougher opponents, but i will rate Kovalev higher if he beats Ward.
