Has Golovkin earned a spot in the Top 5 p4p?

[FAt tEDDY]

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

Talking of which...

Wladimir's highly criticized resume was outstanding compared to Gennady's at 32yo:

The same people in this thread that are so sure GGG is top 5 had a fit when Broner and Canelo were placed in the top 10 by Ring. Canelo and Broner have done more than GGG to be considered top 10 p4p and when Ring (odh) did this for publicity and to bring attention to these GBP fighters those two selections were widely criticized.

HBO is doing the same thing and GGG's fans should be adult enough to acknowledgeit and criticize it the same way they rightly criticized Broner and Canelo being givn p4p spots before they deserved it.

Of course he's not top 5 or even 10 p4p. But nobody gives a **** about Lampleys personal p4p, everyone knows he's a shill. Ring mag used to be the most authoritative, sad its dropped to those lows

WHen ODH purchased the ring magazine, you had to know it would be used as a propaganda tool. HBO's fight Game is no different.

My only point is the GGG fans rightly pointed out that Ring's rankings were dubious given their agenda. They should be saying the same thing here because HBO's agenda is the same-use the p4p list to create the illusion that a popular fighter is a great fighter when thay haven't proven it yet.

[WilkinsOlajuwon]

Is this a serious question? Of course he hasnt. He doesnt belong in the top 15

[M Bison]

He is one or two more fights away from it.

If he fights Martinez then he can be held up in the top 5 P4P, maybe having him high up in the P4P status will make people in his weight division to actually want to fight him instead of having idiots telling him to move up and fight someone who is busy with a law-suit.

Thats fine but the ring rankings would get referred to in arguments all the time cause they were the most credible. Now theyre at the level of shilling Lampley, which is sad.

Martinez isn't even top 5 p4p at this point....how is fighting him going to get him there, he beats martinez he can be top 10, but not top 5....he won't get top 5 until he moves up tbh....the mw division is pathetic and it'll be hard to earn a spot there.

[Grimgash]

Also did Lampley make 15 alt accounts to say he is? Just curious.

I check the Transitional Boxing rankings myself. WHile I don't always agree, I feel tey ar compiled with a sense of integrity and fairness.
