Predict the 2017 p4p list

in no order: loma beterbiev spence crawford roman ward walters(if he fights at the right weight) rigo j.rock oscar valdez charlo bros honorable mention to: centeno thurman danny garcia ggg verdejo joshua povetkin mattyhsse canelo

I started with a long list of names and tried to widdle it down gradually to 10. Some tough calls had to be made: 1. Roman Gonzalez 2. Andre Ward 3. Gennady Golovkin 4. Guillermo Rigondeaux 5. Terrence Crawford 6. Vasyl Lomachenko 7. Kell Brook 8. Sadam Ali 9. Naoya Inoue 10. Rikki Naito Can't wait to see how wrong this list is. My name bank if you're curious... GGG, Sadam Ali, Crawford, Roman Gonzalez, Canelo, Lomachenko, Yamanaka, Uchiyama, Rigondeaux, Kell Brook, Thurman, Lara, Khan, Frampton, Porter, Ward, Walters, Lemieux, Estrada, Inoue, Quigg, Benavidez, Magomedov, Naito, Julian Williams, Murata, Anthony Joshua, Errol Spence Edit: If Cotto beats Canelo he might be able to ride the resulting stock boost long enough to be top 10 in 2017. Rikki Naito has P4P Number 1 best hair in boxing.

Honestly most the people being named won't be close to top ten, the guys that are suppose to be stars almost never are.

1. terrence crawford 2. GGG 3. lomachenko 4. choclotito 5. rigo

Good shout with Imam. He's impressive just needs to tighten up his defense and polish up and he's a real threat with the power. I'd like to see Imam in with Jose Benavidez, Thomas Dulorme, Ruslan Provodnikov, or maybe even Humberto Soto next. I trained with Amir and honestly I don't think he truly has respected any of his opponents yet which is why his defense sometimes gets sloppy. He's big for the weight but makes weight easy. I thought his defense was pretty good his last fight against a real game opponent. He was a much smaller fighter who relied on speed/technique most of his boxing life. But now that he has his grown man strength, I think it's made him more confident to stand with guys, which is why defense has maybe suffered.

In no particular order some names I'd put in there. Errol Spence Amir Imam Terrance Crawford Anthony Joshua Andre Ward Keith Thurman Gennedy Golovkin Lomachenko Rigondeux Good shout with Imam.

Ward Canelo GGG Kovalev Lomachenko Crawford Rigo Gonzalez Thurman Brook Interesting to note - unless I am mistaken - in spite of the fact that Al Haymon controls over 100 fighters he only has one of the 10 I listed under contract. As many guys as he has signed he has very little of the top future talent. Verdejo may get there and Klitschko would make this list ahead of Thurman if he doesn't retire and I don't believe he will. Haymon's depth is largely in the fact that, in addition to name fighters, he's got nearly all of the top prospects in the sport with him (Spence Jr being the brightest of the lot). Beyond that 2017 is a long ways away, in the grand scheme of things; easily 5-6 fights over that time frame. Can Golovkin really avoid Andre Ward for six fights? Can Kovalev really not fight Stevenson, Beterbiev, Fonfara, Alvarez, Oothuizen, Edwin Rodriguez, Marcus Browne et al and Andre Ward and still be in that top conversation (the HBO deal looks to have screwed him, if folks are honest)? What will Rigondeaux look like as a 37 year old super bantamweight? Does Wladimir Klitscko in his 40s really make it past Tyson Fury, Deontay Wilder/Alexander Povetkin and, possibly, Anthyony Joshua? Gloating's a bit premature.

No love for Carl Frampton..? I've never even seen him fight tbh.

No love for Carl Frampton..?

I like that you're being specific. I'm assuming that for wilder to be #4 on the p4p list,he would have had to have beaten wlad,fury,and povetkin,and be the unified heavyweight champ right? Exactly. And Joshua's loss to Wilder won't hurt Joshua's stock much because he is going to storm back and have other big wins.

1. Andre Ward 2. Errol Spence 3. Guillermo Rigondeaux 4. Deontay Wilder 5. Naoya Inoue 6. Gennady Golovkin 7. Anthony Joshua 8. Terrence Crawford 9. Vasyl Lomachenko 10.

My man J-rock is getting no love.... Everyone is sleeping on him... Going to book mark this thread and bump when the time comes

#1. Roman Gonzalez he will be right there on Floyd record

Not in order but the top 10 guys Anthony Joshua Roman gonazlez Golovkin Ward Verdejo Brook Crawford Barthlemey Julien williams Lomachenko

Surprised none of you guys are putting Amir Khan in there. He can beat any 140, 147, 154 right now.

Pound for pound top dog - Lomachenko :boxing:

It would be tough to come up with an order but I'll list some names. Roman Gonzalez Terrance Crawford GGG Kovalev Canelo Ward Thurman Rigo Lomachenko Possibles- Lara, Estrada, Frampton, Spence* Ward Canelo GGG Kovalev Lomachenko Crawford Rigo Gonzalez Thurman Brook Interesting to note - unless I am mistaken - in spite of the fact that Al Haymon controls over 100 fighters he only has one of the 10 I listed under contract.
