    how is his resume not better? i just listed all his good wins. just cmopare them to other guys liek ward, kovalev, canelo, ggg, rigo and its clearly more. did they get as much press? no but that doesn't mean they didn't happen. these weren't charles martin type guys he was beating. they were established fighters with quality resumes.
    Lmao... Are you talking about yaegashi.. A career 23-5 fighter, and Rodriguez 18-4.. Those guys lose to guys roman should be fighting like nietas, ioka, etc.

    I love how if you call out roman for fighting bums, people always say "u just don't know the guys there". Actually I do, and roman is fighting 2nd tier guys.. Beats Rodriguez, yaegashi, but doesn't fight nietas, ioka, inoui, uwreungong, Estrada 2, etc...

      Are you sure? I could swear Lampley and Max felt Ward was the true #1 P4P right now. I'd be surprised if they did not have Ward at least #2.

          By some miracle he wasn't.

          But he's practically exploding in his pants at the the thought of putting GGG at #1. He can't wait to anoint him and is just looking for any excuse to do so.

          I'll have to double check but I believe they had Ward at #5 behind Pacquiao.

          Now that Manny has retired perhaps they have Andre at #4, and some other HBO fighter will be moved to the fifth spot. Probably Lomachenko or Verdejo.

            4:40 - Lampley: "We chose Andre Ward [for #1] on TFG list"
            5:30 - Max: "GGG has become a bit overrated P4P, because we all suspect he's near the top but he just doesn't have the names on his resume."
            5:47 - Max: "...and he's [Ward] correctly ranked at this table as #1 P4P, though that's become unpopular with some boxing writers... But he's the most accomplished and was #2 before Floyd retired."


            I mean, it might have changed since this video, but I think they understand Ward is legit.

              Sorry I did not watch HBO even though it was free this weekend, I still streamed Boxnation to avoid hearing HBO BS. Sounds like I made the right choice lol

                Yeah, it's changed since then. That was from last year.

                  so you know them and are just hating on purpose? i proved you are wrong and now you come back with the old look at his record instead of looking at his accomplishments argument. yea he's 23-5 and a 3 division champ, he was also linear champ when roman beat him and you pretended it wasn't a worthy win. thats just hating. of course he could have fought this guy or that guy but i dont see how viloria is a bum? how is arroyo a bum when most had him beating ruenroeng, a guy you want roman to fight. they also offered the fight to estrada and he said he wasn't ready so please inform yourself. inoui said he wasn't ready as well and the fight is being looked at for the future.

                    verdejo is a future superstar. if we put him at #1 we will just save ourselves some time.
