    After Gonzales loses? Makes sense.

    I hope that was sarcasm. Most thought Ward lost to Kov, most thought Gonzalez beat Sor Rungvasai.

    No I was not being sarcastic just think the p4p list is too open for interpretation and abuse.

    I thought War v Kov was just won by Ward or a draw can't remember how I scored it and thought Gonzales won.
    Do not let success go to your head and do not let failure get to your heart.

    Atlas doesn't have Golovkin or Chocolatito in his top 10 (). Two "experts" have Wilder.

    ESPN p4p lists are usually a joke

    P4P is pointless really. We all know who the best fighters are but our opinions will differ slightly depending on a number of things. It's better to say "one of the best boxers in the world" than try to rank them. I crack up when fans get all worked up about P4P lists and such.

    These are all subjective, but I would have Ward and Loma ahead of GGG right now. After watching the success Jacobs had, imagine what Ward would do to GGG. That would've been a blowout. I'm really interested to see GGG in with a world class fighter with elite speed. Not saying he is a fraud or would automatically lose, would just like to see what a more active, faster version of Jacobs would do against him.

    I've always thought that kovalev was better than GGG and never understood why he didn't get the same amount of love. I think that there boxing skills are pretty equal but I think that kovalev has more one punch fight ending power.

    Kovalev should have beaten the potential best fighter in the world (ward). I can't imagine GGG winning against someone of that skill level. And I think that GGG is very good.

    Doesn't it really all individually come down to what we as fans look for in a skillset and fighting style? It's marketability and can be flavor of the month. With trinkets or division reigns that is where the wheels can come off in subjectivity. Those are easily manipulated now and done for p4p strictly in mind it seems. Once I saw Broner ranked #5 p4p best boxer in the world is when I officially shredded all p4p releases and used them as kitty litter.

    It's like those that have Wilder now. I seem to remember GGG being high on lots of lists going way back.
