    Is that it? If he's being ranked top 3 in the world, I expect he better be KO'ing these guys with 6-30 losses.

    Against who? This is what I mean.

    His opponents records from Estrada to present is 225-66..the worst opponent record of any top 10 P4P fighter in the same span. Even beating out Golovkin by a mile. Actually Gonzalez overall opponent record from that span(10 fights), may be the worst opponent record of any top 10 P4P fighter in the last 5 years. If I didn't have so much studying to do, I would be happy to do that research. But making an educated guess from the top of the cranium, I can't remember a top 3 or even top 10 P4P fighter with that bad of an opposition leading into their entrance to the P4P rankings in the last 5 years. This is just terrible.

        Well his last opponent accounted for nearly half of those losses(28). Sure he's fought his share of duds along the way but he's fairly active averaging around 4 fights a year since 2011.

          These 4 fights a year...against who though? And when I say who I don't mean names, I mean what have they done? 4 HOF'ers, 4 ATG's? 4 great fighters? Cause all I see is excessive amounts of losses coupled with some KO's on these opponents of his.

            Yeah he's facing 4 ATG's each year Like I said he's fought plenty of duds I'm not attempting to defend that. He's active and has faced the best possible opponents in his division, while throwing in various less deserving opponents.

            His best wins? Niida, Takayama, Hirales, Estrada, Rodriguez Jr. Yaegashi. No ATG's but some decent names for a 27 year old. He simply passes the eye test and is a damn good fighter any way you slice it.

                      For me he is the best and has been for a few years now.
