Has Golovkin earned a spot in the Top 5 p4p?

[just the facts]

eventually it's likely, but with his resume so far not even top 10

It's down to personal opinion but I don't think anyone in their right mind would put him in the top 5.

It would have to be based on skills alone cos he's fought no one. And his skills are not that great.

I'm not sure if you have the best eye for catching talent. Didn't you think Cleverly would beat Kovalev?

How do you see it, Russian Crushin? Is GGG top 5 pound for pound?

****! ****! **** **** ****! Lol it's Jim Lampley who cares. His job is to call fights he's no expert.

I've seen worse though like THE RING magazine ranking Broner top 5 after beating Gavin Rees.

LOL.

It's HBO trying to hype a star, though, so I can't pretend it's surprising.

Glob, The Ring has seriously lost so much credibility over the last year or so with their p4p lists. They'll probably put Khan or Maidana on the list when Mayweather decides which of them he wants to fight.

#1 P4P actually

I don't remember saying he wasn't talented. He hasn't fought anyone though and his performances aren't ones that make him top 5 in the world solely on talent. He's KOing a bunch of bums. It doesn't exactly take a lot of talent.

#1 P4P actually

Wlad is P4P #1 and that is indisputable. He beats every other boxer on the planet.
