Soooooooooooooo Why doesnt Roman Gonzalez Move Up???

[SterlingStained]

You want p4p #1 status?

THEN MOVE THE F UP.

Sick and tired of these he's "ultra god mode uber talented" "wow look at his slick ass slickness" "hansel he's so hot right now he's p4p #1 in 3 sites who pretend they watch 112 pounders and not steal rankings from actual boxing sites that actually watch 112 pounders" hipster boxing fans.

YOU CANNOT NAME A FIGHTER #1 OVERALL P4P4 when he weighs less than Amy Whinehouse's decrepit over dosed corpse.

Sorry, you just cant.

Most boxing fans have not seen or heard of this guy and he fights in a utterly weak division. You cannot just leapfrog guys who have FOUGHT AND BEATEN BONA FIDE fighters who are better, more notable than Roman Gonzalez's best wins.


Do you seriously want to reward guys who just stay in one division where its devoid of great fighters for their whole careers when they have the PHYSICAL ABILITY, TECHNICAL TALENT, AND OVERALL GREATNESS to compete at higher weight classes vs notable fighters????


I like Roman Gonzalez.
I like Ricardo Lopez.

But they hid out at low ass weights were there are no real great fighters instead of moving up and making AN EFFORT to make fights vs other fighters.


Rigo is great enough to fight at 126.
Ward is great enough to fight at 175.
Roman Gonzalez is great enough to fight above rawandan refugee weight division.

IF THESE GUYS ARE SO GREAT, SO FILLED WITH OMNISCIENT BOXING GOD TALENT, WHY NOT MOVE UP????

Great post and I agree. But before Ward moves up, I would like him to fight either Golovkin or the DeGale-vs-Jack winner.

Rigo got some good opponents at his weight, but those English/Scottish/whatever are scared of him...

[Dinamita 03]

How many divisions must he move up before he can considered #1? All the way up to featherweight? He's in his third divison as a pro and still at a young age will be moving up sooner than later.

who should b e p4p#1 then?

[soul_survivor]

Strictly speaking, Gonzalez has moved up in weight, winning his first world title at minimum, now he's at flyweight. His weight division is just as legitimate as any weight division, why is it any less relevant to boxing?

I agree, there isn't the same deluge of world class talent as there is from 135-168, which are the weights where some of the greatest ever have consistently fought at.

What do you want Roman to do? Grow 3 extra inches and several weight classes?

I reckon, if he is brave enough, he could make a go at it at bantam but that's about as far as his body will take him imo.

[Dr. Morocco]

who should b e p4p#1 then?

Wladimir. Pacquiao. Ward.

Even Bradley and Povetkin deserves it more than Gonzalez.

marvin haggler didn't move up.... maybe these fighters you are naming will move up... their careers aren't exactly over but I agree with most of your points... but how do u know how comfortable they are at the weights?

He's in his third division and he's still in his mid 20s.

The guys trashing Gonzalez are not familiar with his career

The OP is dumber than a box of rocks. I've never seen anything like it.

Wladimir. Pacquiao. Ward.

Why would Bradley or Povetkin be anywhere on anyones p4p list period?

and Manny has 0 case to be p4p#1 and Ward and Wlad didnt"MOVE UP" EITHER according to this guy you have to MOVE UP to be p4p#1
