ESPN's New P4P Rankings

[beez721]

Very true,, he is very unproven still, but it takes a special fighter to mow down the guys he has, so many times in a row...

And I base my list for on who would be the betting favorite, with resume being secondary
That's why I still have ward so high.. He would be the favorite over nearly anyone at the moment.. I feel ggg would be the favorite over guys like Bradley, roman, Marquez, etc...


But I can totally see how others wouldn't view it the same

yea,,,,I can understand that. I also have high hopes for ggg. hes a beast for sure and has tremendous promise

how is wlad not #1 p4p? he is the MOST DOMINANT boxer right now and has been dominant for so long now. he is the clear top dog at heavyweight. he has power and the boxing IQ to give anyone problems. he is also a great person charismatic, humanitarian and the perfect representative for the sport of boxing.

my top 5:

1. wlad
2. froch
3. pac
4. gonzalez
5. rigo

Since when did charisma, humanitarian work factor in a boxer's ring ability? Wlad is dominant but he just doesn't have too many quality foes to push him. Not particularly his fault but quality wins should count over quantity.

Since its time for bad lists, here's mine

FMJ
Rigo
Manny
Wlad
Gonzalez

Bottom (not really in order)
JMM
Bradley
Estrada
Froch
Canelo
Mikey G.
Kovalev
GGG
Walters
Crawford

I see GGG and Rigo going up as they get good opponents and FMJ, Pac etc eventually retire. Walters, Mikey, Gonzalez are gonna be pretty dominant too.

only a ******ed person or someone suffering from down syndrome would put wlad in #1.

Two things...

First isn't someone suffering from down syndrome ******ed? Two, Vlad would beat everyone else in the P4P he should be number one, it only makes sense.

[Mr.Fantastic]

1. Floyd Mayweather
2. Manny Pacquiao
3. Andre Ward
4. Juan Manuel Marquez
5. Timothy Bradley
6. Guillermo Rigondeaux
7. Gennady Golovkin
8. Wladimir Klitschko
9. Miguel Cotto
10. Roman Gonzalez

What a crappy list. Ward shouldn't even be on there or a lot closer to 10 than 1. Golovkin doesn't even deserve to be on there yet and neither does Cotto.

[FashionTV]

My PERSONAL P4P Rankings:

1. Floyd/GGG;
2. GGG/Floyd;
3. Ward/Rigo;
4. Rigo/Ward;
5. ...
6. ...
7. ...
8. ...
9. ...
10. ...


5-10? can't say. hard to say, hard to determine.

[FeFist]

Awful list. Wlad should be higher; Andre Ward should be unranked; Bradley and Marquez are too high; Golovkin and Cotto shouldn't be on the list.

If that's the case then why is Floyd #1? Unlike Wlad he does have quality opponents to push him but he doesn't fight them. And it's particulary his fault.

Wlad is about to fight second best guy in his division. Floyd? He's most probably fighting Amir Khan next.

[Weltschmerz]

1. Floyd Mayweather
2. Manny Pacquiao
3. Andre Ward
4. Juan Manuel Marquez
5. Timothy Bradley
6. Guillermo Rigondeaux
7. Gennady Golovkin
8. Wladimir Klitschko
9. Miguel Cotto
10. Roman Gonzalez

Here is another perspective on wlad outside the ring

I don't know if it's true or not
