Geale is part of the reason. He knocked off half the division in two fights, WBA-IBF champs. Those guys are now considered shot and irrelevant, Sergio is becoming mortal and Golvkin is dangerous. Off you add Geale (that's five) there's another five for a top 10 that you could throw a blanket over and argue they are on the same level as Geale. I think Alvarez might be coming so they should hurry.
..funny no ones metioned it..but the key to Geale's style is 'pace'..he's got half decent boxing ability and half decent power but his main attribute is that he pours it on..and can keep it on...he UD's everybody..
oh yeh alvarez should be a middie in 2 years...just waiting to see if floyd will fight him...he put on 7 kilos from weigh-in to fight night..thats crazy!
