      Can't believe an entity like ESPN would forget that David Reid won an Olympic gold medal.

        Based of that statement alone GGG probably doesnt make top 50....we had so many great fighters, talented fighters who accomplished a lot
        I can't imagine Raphael is the person behind the inclusion of Golovkin. I suspect more casual fans on the panel decided to do that.

        The tide is turning against GGG and it's his team's fault, although I think Abel is primarily to blame. It's bad enough his opposition is bad but I think many would be more understanding if Abel wasn't running around pretending Golovkin has the fanbase of a prime Oscar and a Hearns-like resume.

          starting to rub people the wrong way.

          Teddy Atlas and Max were the only ones I ever listened too ESPN in regards to boxing.

          Man....FNF was the **** in 90s and early 2000s....their enthusiasm is the only american commentary that rivaled japanese commentary....I can watch paint dry as long its a japanese color commentator...."he lifts the brush, strokes the wall...OOOOOOOOOO !!!"

            I don't mind Raphael too much. He tells who is fighting and that's a plus. I just know that his boxing opinion is his opinion. And that his PBC/Haymon connections are either non-existent or unreliable when he's talking about rumours. It is what it is.

                  Top 3 signature wins: Grzegorz Proksa, TKO5, 2012; Curtis Stevens, TKO8, 2013; David Lemieux, TKO8, 2015

                  I don't like when these websites do lists like this in portions, just do the whole thing at once!
