Anyone check out the recent Ring P4P Ratings?

I just checked, isn't Pac #6? I still don't understand why Crawford is in the top 10, he's done even less than GGG (who people criticize like crazy). GGG is too high, Kovalev should be higher than him. At least Uchiyama is getting some respect. He deserves to be higher than Yamanaka though. I think Golden Boy has Yamanaka ranked higher because they want Randy Caballero to take him (I think Yamanaka does deserve a spot in the top 10 though, just no above Uchiyama but both definitely above Crawford and possibly a few others; these guys have dominated their weight classes for some time now). Yamanaka will beat Caballero pretty easily imo. my bad yeah. i was so stupefied by that list i think i missed Pac

Just when I thought they finally got rid of Bradleys overrated ass, they go and make it a top 11 list. http://cdn0.sbnation.com/imported_assets/1779361/21155d1375921450-joel-lanning-jaguars-fan.gif lmaooo. i wonder how much bob arum paid for them to add that extra 11 lol

It's not strictly about resume, but anyone in the top ten P4P has to be doing it against the highest level of opponents, at least against a good championship level opponent certainly, otherwise there is too many questions that could arise. Too many fighters look amazing against lower to decent level guys then flaws come out all over the place against top level guys. That's why resume is so important. It shows that you're doing it at the highest level, or not. Looking good is one thing, but winning against top guys is everything. Otherwise, why not put Loma in? He's looking P4P good against mostly stiffs. We do know, luckily, that he struggled mightily and lost when he fought his best opponent though, even if he happened to be a well past prime opponent. So no, it's not strictly about resume, but resume really tells the full story of a fighter. When someone isn't fighting top quality guys, then their story is full of questions and no one will ever know it. Weight class ranking is about resume. P4P is a mix of many things: performance, resume, how well fighter x would do if everyone were near the same size and even then it's watered down since "A side" can cherry pick everything, from ring size even down to the gloves to make himself look better than he is.

top 11 now?? lol

Kovalev deserves more respect. He has beaten better fighters than Golovkin has and in similar fashion. The rest of the list I don't mind. My question for those complaining. Who else would you put there?

Ew DISGUSTING P4P list. Makes no sense. Wtf :thinking::thinking:

P4P isn't strictly about resumes. Have people gone full retard?

How can anyone take anything in Ring serious anymore knowing the owner of the magazine spends most of his time sniffing coke, sitting on peckers and wearing women's lingerie?

Lol get ready for Golovkin vs Bradley folks

manny is at #6 Manny is wash up needs to be removed from the list I hope Broner not on the list

I cant believe people still check these lists. Lol

A top 11 is pretty weird. They look like they have gone for more of a resume/ability mix over their usual resume focus.

P4P isn't strictly about resumes. Have people gone full retard? You make a fair point.

How do they put Kovalev lower than GGG? I guess they love Golovkin and for a time they can hold themselves back from put him on P4P lists because they knew that his resume isn't god enough for that but after that the hype just got bigger and bigger, they still loved him and his resume didn't get better by much so they didn't hold themselves back any more, they said "fuck it, we don't care about the resume, the hype is big enough now to put him on there without looking like a fool"

Ward will probably be back up there soon. Holding it down for us light skinned neeyas I don't think so, it seems like they don't really like Ward because otherwise they usually put back fighters in their old position after they come back and win after a long lay off but they missed this in Ward's case. He will have to fight himself back I guess. I don't know why but I'm not worried. He is still one of the bests, he will be back on those lists. Golovkin #4, lmao... I can tell at least 13-14 guys who has better resumes than Golovkin, most of them has obviously better resumes, the rest has arguably better. HBO hype machine is really in full effect, they turboed up the hype so much that now organisations like ring or espn feel that they should and they need to put the guy on their list solely based on many people like him and talk about him and not by his resume. I mean if you best win is Murray you can be as good as you want to be hypothetically but you're not belong (yet?) to the P4P lists.

How do they put Kovalev lower than GGG? Bradley is now #11 in the Ring rankings to solidify Floyd's choice to fighting him :rofl:
