New Ring P4P rankings: Wladimir Klitschko moved up to #2

[bojangles1987]

Total joke! The guy is an awkward blob in the ring fighting guys who wouldn't be sparring partners for past p4p fighters.
he has NO defensive skills at all, look at him thrust both arms out when he got hit with a jab last week! watch his feet come off the canvas too! his height is his defense and that's not a developed skill its a genetic help!
He never punches in combination and he has NO lateral movement! Getting up on his toes in front of the blob he fought last week was a "high light" hahaha!!!!

p4p king right now in boxing is RIGO watch him box and then watch Wlad and if you think Wlad is more skilled than RIGO you have no idea what technique and boxing IQ is!

To ad Carl Froch to a p4p BEST list is delusional, he has no form no style and is at best a club fighter with heart! Having guts and heart is very important but the p4p ranking is for "highly skilled" fighters!
Wlad is the giant modern day Canera and Froch is the crowd pleasing ruff house guy who people enjoy seeing.
If you can imagine these fellows competing against past p4p greats, they would be slaughtered.
Imagine a RIGO at 6'3" 218-222 Wlad has No Chance! None!

Sorry but p4p is for elite fighters not just because you win against inferior competition.

You are way too hard on Froch. He's proven himself to be the second best fighter in one of the better divisions in boxing with a run of fights and wins over the last 6 or 7 years very few in the sport can compete with.

If you are going to list heavies pound for pound then Wlad should be that high. He has been one of the most dominant guys in boxing you can't take that away from him.

I prersonally don't rank heavies pound for pound, the heavyweight champ is still the baddest man in the sport to me so they don't need extra recognition. However if I was going to rank Wlad, number 2 seems correct given what has been going on.

[Dr.Eisenfaust]

Erase Ward and this idiot Froch from the list and put GGG and Kovalev instead.

Roman is no worse than the 2nd or 3rd best in the world.

Roman Gonzalez is terribly overrated on here. His opposition is garbage. That last win where he beat that guy with 7 losses I saw a Roman fan say "this is why he is the best". I'm still trying to figure out of this is all just one big forum joke like that Ali Raymi gag we have going on here. Reminds me of Anselmo Moreno getting hyped up for nothing. Never saw anything in him, don't see anything special in Gonzalez. Good for him, he's beating up on garbage fighters.

Hate Session - Take 1
1. Go 24 rounds with Devon Alexander's son and get the #1 spot.
2: Determined by amount of clinches in the past year.
3. Dionisia Pacquiao stole the cage keys.
4. Determined by amount of clinches in the past year.
5. Not so young, black, and slick anymore.
6. I don't make fun of people with serious pimple conditions.
7. 41 bums have tried, 41 bums have failed.
8. If he was black or Mexican, he'd be #1.
9. Slowest ****ing cobra I've ever seen.
10. Besides being beloved by GB and countless nationalistic idiots, he gave Gonzalez the original formula to making the p4p list.

His opposition isn't garbage but it's no where near Top P4P level.

He's a good fighter but I agree he's overrated at the moment.

Never made any sense to me, he is a boxer in the sport we can't pretend he doesn't exist. What if a great cruiser is ranked p4p then he moves to heavy is he taken off? what if he moves back to 200? put back where does it stop?

[Weltschmerz]

Lol um no. Algeri was better than Pulev if you want to use the "what have you done for me lately" method. And Pac just beat Bradley 6 months ago, a guy who is probably better than anyone on Vlads resume

No, he wasn't. Algieri got schooled and knocked down how many times.

[Lords]

Cotto is the middleweight champ moving up in weight to win it against a guy who was in the top 10 but doesn't make the list.. ok.

New Ring magazine P4P rankings:

1. Floyd Mayweather Jr.

2. Wladimir Klitschko

3. Manny Pacquiao

4. Andre Ward

5. Tim Bradley

6. Juan Manuel Marquez

7. Roman Gonzalez

8. Guillermo Rigondeaux

9. Carl Froch

10. Saul Alvarez

Wow, that's awesome. That makes Wladimir the highest ranked Ring P4P heavyweight since Mike Tyson was ranked #1 in 1989. (Bogus)

Edit: Ward should be dropped from the rankings for being inactive for more than a year without a fight scheduled.
