    Wins over:

    Deserved the win over Groves

    compared to

    Murray
    Geale
    Mackllin
    Stevens
    Lemieux
    Willy Jr

    DeGale has the much more impressive resume

    DeGale needs 1 more solid win for top 10 P4P. Badou Jack, Abraham, Chudinov or Groves II will suffice.

    But he also lost to Groves and struggled with the Polish guy. Also, his wins over Dirrel and Bute have both been highly competitive but yes, a better resume overall, no arguments there...

    As a counterpoint GGG also struggled with Ouma.

    Indeed. Better resume and despite what people say, that was a reinvigorated Bute.

    GGG has stopped all those world level opponents including Murray who was robbed against Martinez. He also has a win over Geale who at one point was a unified middleweight champion having got TWO decisions in Germany which is a miracle.

    The only titlist Degale has beaten is Bute so far, we will have to see. If he fights and beats Badou Jack and Abraham then he deserves a spot.

    GGG is back end top ten P4P until he moves up to 168.

    Quite honestly there are a few fighters who should be on a P4P list over GGG, the only guy on any P4P list who is there based of look and not comp is Golovkin

    Being undefeated and looking impressive means a lot less when you've fought a bunch of nobodies. DeGale got jobbed against Groves anyway.

    I predicted Bute would go the distance and make it incredibly competitive and possibly win.:hi:

    DeGale defeated faded versions of Bute and Dirrell.

    Didn't you say Bute would KO DeGale?

    This. I will also add that there is also a few fighters that should be on the p4p list over Crawford (I'm high on the guy) as well

    I said it was a possibility and he did stun Degale a few times.
