    Talent wise he should be on it, but I think he needs to beat a top 5 guy in his weightclass before being a certified P4P fighter.

            I've seen people make claims for Canelo, Mikey Garcia and Bradley on here. Yet none of those guys have impressed the way GGG did tonight. He may be teetering around the top ten, but not quite there yet. Damn close though.

            This guy has the potential to be a long stay in the top 3 p4p rankings, IMO

              Every indication is he will be top 10, heck top 3 P4P very soon but right now he's not even top 20. P4P is about resume not how good you are.

                rate higher as in what? neither are p4p broner has the much better resume. golovkin seems much more polished but he is also a lot older so broner certainly has more potential.

                  His best win is Macklin. NO.

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.
                    What do you mean the division is lacking in talent? No **** the division seems lacking in talent when you compare the current crop to 2 top 15 ATG's.

                    There's actually a lot of depth in this division:

                    1. • Sergio Martinez (RING, WBC middleweight champion)
                    2. • Gennedy Golovkin (WBA middleweight champion)
                    3. • Daniel Geale (IBF middleweight champion)
                    4. • Peter Quillin (WBO middleweight champion)
                    5. • Julio Cesar Chavez Jr
                    6. • Martin Murray
                    7. • Mathew Macklin
                    8. • Hassan N'Dam N'Jikam
                    9. • Felix Sturm
                    10. • Darren Barker
                    11. • Dmitry Pirog
                    12. • Sergio Mora
                    13. • Brian Vera
                    14. • Marco Antonio Rubio
                    15. • Andy Lee
                    16. • Max Bursak
                    17. • Grzegorz Proksa
                    18. • Osumanu Adama
                    19. • Danny Jacobs
                    20. • David Lemieux

                    You can't find many other divisions in boxing with that kind of depth in the top 20.
