    George Groves in over 6 years in the pros has never beat an opponent who was ranked in the Worlds top 15 SMWs at any stage, when he fought them (neutral rankings), so why do so many people think he is something special? Yes he was/is fringe world class, but has never been anything more.

    DeGale is now, but was not top 15 at the time of fight. Rebrasse was not top 15 either

    natural rankings I said, not a governing body e.g. ring magazine, boxrec. Brian Rose was ranked higher than that in governing body rankings when he fought Andrade, does not mean he was one of best LMW in the world

    Do you think Periban or Gonzales are top 15 fighters?
