Atlas points out the response these men gave him. "like I talked about their mothers". Is that rational to you Bojangles?

If you have an issue with his list, fine, thats understandable. Asking him to explain himself is utterly ridiculous.

Not including GGG in a top 10 p4p list doesn't mean you don't know boxing. It just means you don't think he is top 10.

Why is this wrong?

Atlas is almost definitely exaggerating. What probably happened is that, like any rational person who follows boxing, they were incredulous that Golovkin was not on his list and wanted him to explain why. Atlas's list is not one a fair, knowledgeable boxing fan would make.

If you don't have Golovkin on your list, damn straight I'm going to question your boxing knowledge.

How the hell is Spence anywhere near a P4P list at this point in his career?

[The Hammer]

He must rate a win over bundu pretty ****ing high if he has thurman 4th and spence 10th. Thats probably the worst pound for pound list ive ever seen, and i saw isaac clarkes list yesterday...

Bundu was age 42.

Hardly a win to put Spence in the top 10 P4P.

Teddy is crazy.

That's the buety of lomachenko he's actually the master of everything, he doesn't just have quickness he's got the total package, dude will flat out embarrass world class fighters and frustrate them so bad they quit, he's clearly a unique talent and if you cant see that well boxing just isn't your thing.

If he was a master at everything, fighters would not be lasting 12 rounds with him! he is good in every department, and that will take you along way in boxing! But if he gets inside of the ring, with a fighter who has at-least one great attribute? that's when he can find himself in some serious trouble. Historically the pound for pound number 1, has always possessed a great attribute...

I am just not convinced by Lomachenko, when the fight happens with Jorge Linares? he will be beaten.

his footwork is arguably the best in the sport. I'd say thats a pretty good attribute.

Ward is definitely not #1. We can see what you base your rankings on.

Of course you would say that. Made anymore posts on the racist site you're a proven member of?

Fighters in their primes who fight once a year shouldn't even be there. It's simple common sense as an active fighter takes more risks than the other, and his chances of losing is much greater.
