    Should change its name to Goldenboy Magazine. Oscar purchasing The Ring was the worst thing that could happen to the publication. Anyone who can't see the bias in these rankings is a fool.

      Fischer just posted his mailbag where he said he disagreed with Giampa, but that his reasoning was legitimate. He went onto argue that if Broner beat ATG Paulie Malignaggi, that proved he was an elite fighter.

      I am not making this up. Seriously. And this guy is the editor, the fucking editor of the Ring magazine. Damn shame what a boxing institution has been reduced to.

        They got paid to put someone with ZERO resume like Broner in the P4P list
        Broner has someone hidden pushing him up
        Chavez Jr. has a better resume that him

          Damn, so beating Paulie makes you elite now? I guess Cano is an elite fighter now too... Sometimes these so called boxing journalists just talk out of their ass.

              It's sad really, I'm so disgusted with what The Ring has degenerated to that I haven't even had the will to crack open any of the last 6 issues. They sent me a subscription renewal and it went right into the shredder.

              They need to just go ahead and rename the damn rag Golden Boy Magazine. I'm done with them.

                I dont see how mares isnt up there instead of broner.... The ghost does not belong in there. Also Danny Garcia being the champ at 140 is a joke.

                  ring's p4p ratings went full ****** after manny got ko'ed....donaire should still be top ten, but broner, bradley and guerrero don't belong...replace these 3 with mares, rigo and froch and i'll be a happy camper...

                  broner - hasn't done **** that can remotely been seen as p4p worthy

                  guerrero - hasn't really done anything that is p4p worthy either..he beat berto who wasn't even ranked #10 at ww, he beat some relatively unknown come forward brawler named aydin who soon after lost to journeyman karass...so how really good was aydin to begin with?

                  bradley - prior to his robbery win of pac you could say was p4p but as of lately he hasn't looked p4p at all...he was outpointed against pac and most recently almost got put out by a guy that ring magazine ranked #10 at 140...

                      to me the whole whoring of the belts it's what killed them, the ring belt used to be a very prestigious title because of how hard it was to get one.
                      now it looks like by the end of the year all divisions will have a champ, how much long till they start charging fees?
