The dislike for Chocolatito saddens me

[mlac]

anyone that dislikes him is not a boxing fan /end thread.

If you can watch that fight and come away with the conclusion that either of those fighters are bums, you really don't know boxing



Gonzalez has beaten three reigning titlists (Niida, Yaegashi and Cuadras), two former titlists (Viloria and Sosa) and four fighters who won titles after he beat them (Estrada, Rodriguez, Takayama and Yaegashi), plus Arroyo who arguably beat Ruenroeng in a title fight, and evidently many people thought he also beat Sor Rungvisai on the weekend, who is a former titlist himself. That's nine good wins and one close loss to a good fighter. Ward only has six. Also, Gonzlaez has moved up 10 lbs since his first title fight, a gain of 9.5%, while Ward has moved up 7 lbs since his first title fight, a gain of ~4%

Nicely done with some intriguing stats. Green k sent

Also, Estrada, Rodriguez and Takayama didn't just go on to become titlists but actually became unified titlists after Roman beat them. Viloria also unified a couple of titles at one point. And I'm pretty sure that both Estrada and Viloria have featured on P4P lists at some point too

I just find it hilarious that he gets so much praise for conquering 4 weightclasses when in reality its a total of like 6-8 pounds
6 pounds isn't a lot people, i dont care how short you are.
If youre a great fighter youre gonna beat guys who weigh a few pounds heavier than you

If it was so easy, everyone would be doing it

The P4P best isnt the best when youre blaming 115lbs being too heavy for you

Why not? The whole point of p4p is to take out the size factor when comparing how good fighters are.

Heres a thought, go to the gym for 2 months and weightlift. He'll gain a few pounds of muscle, problem solved.

You're showing a lot of ignorance with this comment.

Hes a beyond average fighter who beat C+ fighters his whole career and somehow fooled boxing fans hes number 1 P4P.

Nope, he's as skilled as anyone in the top 10 p4p currently, way above average fighters.

I swear I have never heard a more annoying, servile, toady, butt-licking, eager-to-impress voice than the guy in this video. Everytime someone posts a video of his here and I hear his voice I feel nothing but disgust. They never stop to address him either, they're always training or doing something like he's a nuisance.

People on here hate him because he isnt Mexican or from whatever other latinc community makes up some of the posters on here. Outsideo f the confines of this forum, RG is quite popular, everyone enjoy his style, most believe he beat the Thai guy and did so very well but hey, it is what it is.

Over the last 3 or 4 fights, I've really come to appreciate RG, he is a terrific, all round fighter with good power and a solid heart. I never believed he was deserving of the p4p no.1 status but he is definitely top 5.

Nobody is targeting Gonzalez, he loss, move on, the only thing I'd say against Roman is he should of never been ranked p4p #1 over guys like Crawford, Loma, Ward or even Golovkin

[LacedUp]

Are people hating on him now? haven't really been around, but really?? After that fight. That's just insane.

[NYG]

He's a midget, how good can he really be?

[Chrismart]

My opinion of Gonzalez only grew even more during that fight, even though I felt Rungvisai deserved the win

For a forum called "Non Stop Boxing" there are a lot of people around who not only DKSAB but seem to actually hate it

Totally agree.
