Why Teddy Atlas Is Right

[BillyBoxing]

Teddys list was ridiculous. Up until last year he was wrecking legit, top 10 middleweight opposition.

His trainer is an ass and his fans are the absolute worst in the history of sports and entertainment but GGG is a top 5 p4p fighter. Clearly.

Nope, Ward/Floyd's fans are worst...

That's just my opinion.

They have shown, more trollism and low blows (peds accusation, racism towards asians/euros) IMO.

They somehow are getting a pass, gotta be some kind of american "affirmative action".

Really weird for a foreigner like me.

we don't know about ggg but we know about spence and thurman? your argument would make sense if those guys weren't on the list but they are.

Porter, Guerrero, Collazo...those names and the way he beat those names get Thurman entry into the discussion. And I don't understand how folks can watch what Spence did to Algieri (who beat Provo, went the distance with Pac, and gave Khan all he wanted) and not say he gets into the argument either.

algieri went the distance and got put on his arse 6 times. Never understand why thats seen as some amazing achievement 'went the distance' it means **** if you lose every single round and get dropped 6 times.

He came up from 140 after a brutal match with Provo and ended the Pac fight on his feet against one of the most dangerous punchers in the history of the sport- after being KD 6 times. He follows THAT up by given yet another elite guy- Khan- all he can handle in a loss.

Again, I did not give Algieri much credit initially. I though Ruslan beat him. But against Pac then Khan he proved he belongs.

vargas ended the pacquiao fight on his feet, you rate him highly too? And brandon rios? joshua clottey? In fact every fighter since miguel cotto in 2009....

Do they use periods when they write sentences? If so, they've demonstrated more intelligence and education than you.

You don't like the truth do you? Ward fans are unintelligent ****** ****.

again, insecure posts should be less con****uous.

I mean, focus on Teddy Atlas. Last I knew he was Asian?

well it's a good thing these fans make your insecurities stand out. hopefully maybe when you're 70, you'll shrug your shoulders and say, ''damn, why did I think that way? everyone is cool.''

There's still time mate!

If people are going to use his resume as an example then fine. But you can't be selective about it.

You can't say Golovkin's resume is thin and then have fighters like Keith Thurman, Rigo and Errol Spence Jr. ranked ahead of him.

Besides, most of the guys on that P4P list have only 1, maybe 2, significant wins.

[original zero]

The most logical was to rank fighters "pound for pound" is to analyze each weight class and determine which fighters are dominating their weight classes the most. We know the 100th best heavyweight in the world would dominate the #1 welterweight in the world, but we can judge fighters "pound for pound" based on what they're accomplishing in their weight division.

Nobody is accomplishing more in their weight division right now than GGG. Nobody is dominating their weight division more than GGG. It is for those reasons that GGG should be recognized as the #1 pound for pound fighter in boxing.

He's the undefeated WBC/WBA/IBF world champion. Nobody in boxing has proven themselves to be, by far, the #1 fighter in their division more than GGG.
