    Maybe?????

      Yeah, their list sucks but that's the one everyone refers when they talk PFP.

      Golovkin doesn't belong on there yet imo. Proksa and Macklin are his two top 10 Ring ranked opponents. You need more than that, regardless of KOs.

        Exactly. Well said.

          I am also not completely sold on Golovkin as a fighter by the way. He did what he was supposed to do, impressively might I add, but I don't know how he'd fare against a fighter who would shut his angles down. It's hard to think of many fighters who would problem him in the middleweight division today, but that's because the division is lacking in talent. At the same time it feels means not rating a fighter highly because Bernard and Hagler would dispatch of them. I suppose what I mean to say is he's somewhere between good and great, I just don't know the exact position.

            lol he'd have a decent case for no.1 if he beat those guys.

              Not yet, I think he still needs another good win to be number #10 maybe.

              Froch has a much better resume and most guys have him as 7-10 P4P.

                I agree with you, but we are boxing fans bro, for casuals The Ring is still the most objective and reliable source of boxing knowledge, they see Broner out there and think "he is the real deal", they don't see GGG and think "He's not on the list? Well, he's not that good"

                  Many in the current P4P top ten are pitty-patting to unimpressive decision win..

                  Golovkin is clearly the best middleweight right now. He defeated Matthew Macklin much more impressively than Sergio Martinez did.
                  So is Quillin............he in your top 10 too?

                  How did Golovkin do against Chavez jr, Barker, Pavlik, and Murray?

                      Quillan has been avoiding GGG because he KNOWS Gennady is the better fighter.
