    Geale, Lemieux, and Murray are b level. I will argue this if you want.

    geale got destroyed by ww cotto lmfao b level? murray lost to a shot to **** abraham who isnt even b level himself anymore. he also got easily handled by geoves who is b level. lemieux can possibly be b level but he needs to do more than beat n dam to prove that. this is a guy who got outboxed by joachmij fkicg alcine lmaooo after he was coming iff getting destroyed by angulo. i mean at the end of the day you can give geale and murray b level gradex but ehat does that make a shot abraham and groves lmao A level?:lol:

    Going off the fight it would have to be that Oumar fellow,since heard that GGG was ill that night but Oumar took some punishment but gave it back and often beat GGG to the first punch.
    Admiteddly though and annoyingly GGGs resume is a poor one though it would be fine if the top five in the middleweight division would step up and face him.
    I think this fight with Brook got made because of the need to face a bigger name instead of another mandatory,I'm not sure I believe Saunders or Jacobs about wanting more money,if they had the same offer that Brook has would they take it?

    Beating a B level fighter doesn't mean you're an A level fighter. Styles, judges, situations and other things are all factors. Yeah Geale got destroyed by Cotto, but Cotto was no welterweight, he hadn't fought at welterweight in almost 6 years. Geale also has wins over Sturm, Mundine, and Sylvester.

    Murray is the hardest sell, but the fact that many had him beating both Sturm and pre-surgery Martinez are very good credentials even if they aren't "official".

    Lemiuex beat Rosado, N'dam, and Guerrero all better than Quillin and is still young enough to have a healthy career in front of him. Also the N'dam is an underrated win considering N'Dam beat both Stevens and Khurtsidze.

    geale was not even slightly competitive with a tiny jmw or cotto wjo got easily handled by trout. there is no way i can put him at b level. but it depends kn how u grade if we give geale a b grade we have to give cotto an a plus plus plus plus plus x 50 grade lmao. lemieux beat a bunch of quillin leftovers and? you sau he beat ndam and guerreo better based off what? ill give u rosado but lemieux was not anymore impressivr against the other 2. ndam lemieux and ndam quillin were close fights the knockdowns made the diff and quillin destroyed guerrero. oh and sorry for typos typing this on an ipad

    GGG had to move up to 300 lbs to fight her.
