James has hardly been beating top ranked guys, and at least Chavez Jnr has fought at a higher level.
Look at the last 5 boxers faced by each, and who would you rank as beating the better boxers? Its got to be Chavez Jnr

DeGale has got to stop with these stupid marking time fights and move up a level.
Agreed. But the point is Chavez has yet to fight a ranked super middleweight fighter, yet he's been made mandatory for the title.

Chavez looked formidable in Vera 2 he truly has a rock like head. Froch v Chavez would have been a sight to see.
