The British guy said nonchalantly, "Well the casual fans like him because of his style"
Pretty much sums up why Gonzalez and GGG are rated so highly, casual fans, journalists catering to casual fans. As far as Gonzalez goes, nobody respects him as the #1 P4P fighter, no fighter or trainer feels that way. Just probably his trainer and family, and some hipster writers. But no fighter or trainer actually feels that RG is #1 and that tells you everything you need to know about the legitimacy of his ranking.

Who is #1 p4p there?
Wladimir Klitschko
What rank does Ward have?
oh let me see..there he is, number 18. You know why? Because he fought 2 times in 3 years and his only recent fight was against a guy who came from 2 losses and is shot, and he fought that guy at a catch weight. Thats seriously p4p worthy.

Boxrec is terrible for ratings. Their P4P list is crazy, though I don't care that Wlad is #1. I would not care if Wlad, Ward or Kovalev were #1. But the rest of their list is crazy.
