one question, who has a better resume IN the ring, GGG or Andy Lee?

golovkin obviously. he has beaten 3 top 5 fighters. lee has beaten none. ggg has beaten 6 top 10 fighters and lee has only beaten one. lee has only fought 3 top 10 fighters and went 1-1-1 against them to ggg's 6-0.

man im telling you, HBO's tactics work even on boxing writers who i would've thought had more insight than casual fans, they line up that guy with some of the weakest opposition or small 154 fighters, c'mon GGG's toughest fights are against the BKB champ and the Boxcino champ, i love Gabe Rosado too but he fought GGG in his first fight at 160, he moved up a division to take the fight because it was a good opportunity for exposure, and the Boxcino Champ is a 154 fighter as well, GGG fights 154 fighters or fights stiffs like Murray who couldn't finish off a one legged fighter in a wet ring.....i mean c'mon talk about herd mentality

no he's not. what are you talking about? monroe spent his entire career at middleweight and the boxcino tournament he won was at middleweight.

proksa, macklin, stevens, geale, rubio, and murray sounds a lot better than korobov and a draw with quillin doesn't it? try to be fair. you aren't sounding reasonable.

He wants Danny at #4. A guy who cannot win a fight in dominating fashion for the life of him, well except for Salka. Every fight he is in, he either gets a gift, or barely wins.

1. Floyd Mayweather Jr.
2. Roman Gonzales
3. Wladimir Klitschko
4. Guillermo Rigondeaux
5. Manny Pacquiao
6. Danny Garcia
7. Sergey Kovalev
8. Gennady G. Golovkin
9. Miguel Cotto
10. Naoya Inoue

What is with people and Wlad? Neither his competition or skillset are p4p at all. Only reason he could be on the list at all is because there's a lack of clear candidates past 6 or 7. Did people see how bad he looked when he wasn't allowed to cheat as much as he wanted against Bryant Jennings? Did they see how bad he looked when he cheated as much as you'll ever see against Povetkin?

and yet povetkin and jennings are a better set of wins than any on, for example, golovkin's record. add pulev to that and he certainly deserves to be top 5 based on recent form.

Good list

But Bradley shouldn't be in there

He's over the hill
