Beating Paul Smith earns you the number 2 spot on a P4P list...

[Szef]

...according to Ring

New P4P list:

1. Gonzales

2. Ward

3. Kovalev

4. Golovkin

5. Rigondeaux

6. Klitschko

7. Crawford

8. Pacquiao

9. Yamanaka

10. Brook

Ward is one of the top 3 or 4 fighters in the world full stop. We all know that so why play dumb?

[k1llu]

if not for his promotional problems and injures he would have been p4p#1 don't act like ward hasn't put in the work because you're a fan of lil G it makes you look ignorant.

[Ryn0]

Not really, anyone with a brain knew as soon as he was active again he would be right up there.

His resume is better than anyones on that list bar Pacquiao.

Ward is one of the top 3 or 4 fighters in the world full stop. We all know that so why play dumb?

Because he fought Paul ****in Smith after a 2 year lay off.

Intriguing list indeed, though:

Klitschko dropped from #3 for? I don't know, signing to fight Tyson Fury?

Brook entered the list for beating Shawn Porter over a year ago.

[Doctor_Tenma]

Didn't Mayweather come out of a 2 year layoff, beat Marquez and get the number 2 spot as well? We all know Ward is quite arguably the best fighter right now, nothing to complain about.

It's funny how ring would always put gbp fighters on there when they don't deserve it. Now they have brook and Crawford lol. Surprised canelo isn't on it

I don't really care about the Ring ratings in all honesty.

But you're just in complete denial if you don't think that Andre Ward is one of the best fighters in the world.

Golovkin is 4th and his best win is Martin Murray which is far more laughable IMO.

Did I say he isn't?

I'm just laughing at that list, not the fighter in question.



RATINGS POLICY

Results. This is the most objective criterion and takes precedence over all others.
Performance. How a fighter performs in a victory or defeat can be a factor to determine his place in the ratings.
Track record: A fighter’s accomplishments in the recent past can be a factor to determine his place in the ratings. That includes quality of opposition.

Ring Magazine is a joke.

So by your logic,beating marquez=beating Paul Smith....
