Rankings compiled by The Ring magazine



My thoughts:

Bradley, off two tight, controversial wins over Pac and JMM, is too high at # 3.
A case can be made for JMM and Sergio to be flip-flopped in the rankings.
Broner's iffy at # 8.
Canelo does not belong on the list.
Rigo's p4p material, but only has the 12 fights. Beating Nonito was big, though.

GGG belongs on the list before Canelo does.

The rest of the list looks alright.

I think they have the top 5 right (Timothy, Wlad and Sergio can be shifted around at will). Floyd and SOG are clearly the top two athletes in the sport right now.

I'd like to see Danny Garcia and GGG breaking the top 10 too. Garcia's smashing of Matthysse was very impressive.

[p4pking]

I probably put quite a bit less stock in achievements than most as far as this. I think Golovkin and Garcia should be on there as well, definitely over Broner or Alvarez for me. I do think Rigondeaux is a better fighter than Wlad or Martinez currently as well, but can't gripe to much about that.

[walrus]

Agreed, Broner should not be on the list. He might at some point but not now. I don't argue with the people who say Canelo should not be on. Get Bradley out of the three spot. All I can do is reiterate what you guys have said

[powerpuncher]

i dont really like how p4p is formulated. other than the first 2, i just about totally disagree.

1 Floyd Mayweather Jr
2 Andre Ward
3 Timothy Bradley
4 Juan Manuel Márquez
5 Wladimir Klitschko
6 Sergio Martínez
7 Roman Gonzalez
8 Saúl Álvarez
9 Danny Garcia
10 Manny Pacquiao

At first I had a hard time with Gennady Golovkin. I couldn't find a spot for him. Than I remembered his best wins are still Matthew Macklin and Curtis Stevens. So he doesn't deserve a spot. Yet. Garcia win over Matthysee, Alvarez win over Trout and Gonzalez win over Estrada easily trump Golovkin best wins

[FinitoElDinamita]

Delete Broner and Canelo from the list and everything else looks about right...

WTF has Canelo done and why the hell is Broner on the list. lol They got a free place on the list because they are promoted by GBP who happens to own the Ring Magazine..

The blind do need jobs too, I guess

C'mon.... between you and me. You know Canelo has no business in the top 10 p4p list.



Take off your biased hat and put on your knowledgeable boxing hat.... that's right.
Now think about it.

A victory over Austin Trout. You know the guy who had his way with your Miguel Cotto means a lot more than wins over Matthew Macklin and Curtis Stevens combined. It's that simple. If you think otherwise than there really is no hope for you.

One meaningful victory, VD. ONE. There's a conga line of boxers out there with more than just the one meaningful victory who are a hell of a lot more deserving for a spot in the top ten p4p than Canelo.

Canelo is still on the way up, VD. But there's no shortcuts into the elite. That shit's got to be earned over time, and with a hell of a lot more than one meaningful opponent.

[TitoFan]

Anyway, VD... opinions are just that.... opinions. You think Canelo belongs in the top 10. I don't. I didn't even put Cotto in there, and he's got a lot more reasons to be in there than Canelo. Cotto's the decorated veteran, with the HOF resume. Cotto looked 20 times better against Floyd than Canelo did. Cotto faced better opposition in his first 15-20 fights... than Canelo has faced in his total 40-some. Etc, etc, etc. But I'm not here crowing about Cotto having to be on the list, because I know he's lost some fights, and is on the downhill side of a great career. Objectiveness..... it's a good concept. Try it sometime.
