    That's true, the Ring p4p rankings are made by Chuck Giampa, nobody else.

    Anyway, as others pointed out, i've yet to encounter a fan who agreed with Broner being ranked top-10 p4p, let alone #5 so i don't really see what the point of this thread is.

    If you can't recognize Broner's talent and skillset, you're ******ed. He isn't gonna lose for a long time...and he damn sure isn't losing to Burns or Vasquez. Not trying to be a dick, but the reality of the situation is that he's simply better than them.

    So do YOU rate him in your p4p top-10? Serious question.

    so like a ricky hatton minus the embarrassing ko losses?

    honestly i think many fighters would not mind having lacy' s career. only a few manage to make it that far.

    If you are asking me is he one of the 10 best fighters in the world, I would say "yes". If you are asking me does he have one of the 10 best resumes in the world I would say "no". I say that to say it's a subjective question, and depending on what the criteria are, it's difficult to say definitively. He is, relative to his weight range, one of the ten surest bets in boxing, IMO.

    He's already well beyond where Lacy topped off.

    The guys is still young and takes on all comers give him a chance. With that said I don't rank him in the top ten P4P just yet.

    I can not justify his place in the P4P ratings but we know who owns Ring Magazine thats all you need to know.

    Who has he beat? Antonio Demarco is a solid win get over it he is validated

    Thats a hard fight to pick a winner to be honest, Burns loves to bring the fight to ya, but he also boxes well, Broner does the same ****, even match hard to pick a winner here but a great fight I think

    When is he going to rematch PDL? I'm looking forward to that bout.

    he is so similar to Floyd that everybody is confused and puts him into p4p list just by mistake

    Fair enough. I myself would say that at the moment he 'seems' one of the 10 best fighters in the world. I won't flat out say that he 'is' that until he proves it. Beating the Burns-Vasquez winner after Rees will go a long way towards him doing that. Let's just hope we get to see it!

    Yeah. I suppose it wouldn't have been right to rematch him immediately when the opportunity to go up the weights and put some distance between them presented itself.
