Reasons why Roman "Chocolatito" Gonzalez is #1 P4P.

argument so strong against that ALMOST EVERY SITE has him #1 P4P?the arguments against are too strong, guys like Wlad, Kovalev, Bradley, Pavquiao, Rigondeaux (possibly) and even Canelo have all beaten better opponents and at times, might have looked better doing it. They have all had better title reigns or longer title reigns.
As much as I like watching the little guys fight, there isn't much quality south of featherweight, too many top guys have records like 13-3 or 22-5. So, Gonzalez being no.1 doesn't make sense.
there's quality little guys. it's just they don't stay/last there.
at least the little guys are all young and in shape.
how many 40 yr. olds and fat slobs have wlad fought?Comment

wlad is at a disadvantage in P4P discussion.
in a debate where the purpose is evaluate fighters without considering size, wlad is handicapped because he depends on his size.
dan rafael argued for wlad for ESPN rankings. he was alone and shot down.Comment

Chocolatito is one of the finest boxers I've ever seen.
Hes deserving of p4p no.1
Him, Kovalev, GGG, Rigo and Ward (when he's actually fighting) are the best boxers in the world todayComment

Dan Rafael, Teddy Atlas, and Max Kellerman have to be the only guys who actually watch boxing at ESPN.Comment

they actually have several boxing writers.
brian campbell, kieran mulvaney use to be there.
plus ESPN is international, maybe the foreign boxing guys have a vote too.Comment
