How did you work that out?
Why shouldn't Smith be 20th? What have those below him done that is better than arguably beating Abraham?

Top 100.

But there are others on your list whom have challenged or won world titles , that are far below George.
I don't see you offer any merit as to why that is.
You need a rational list, not an emotional one.
You slag Groves off any chance you get. You are a Groves hater.
You picked him to win, he got smashed up - and then you still award him an undeserving ranking for him over more deserving and accomplished champions and former champions.
You offer no explanation as to why he merits it.
Case closed.

I picked Groves to win against Froch? When?

You're the only one who has a problem with his ranking.
I have no need to explain it, it is obvious.

Gallagher only scored it a draw, so while the fight was closer than expected the argument for the win isn't particularly strong.

26% thought Smith deserved the win and 19% thought he deserved a draw.
What have those below him done that is better than that?

Which means 74% thought Smith didn't win.

And the other 26% are scousers, no way did Smith win that fight.

His record isn't that great though. He needs to step up.

Galahad is where he belongs. He needs to fight better opposition.

Macklin looked absolutely awful on the Smith-Abraham card; I wouldn't be calling for him to be any higher at the moment.

Galahad might be European champion, but he hasn't really beaten anyone at European level yet.
He needs to fight better opponents. Hopefully Martinez becomes his next mandatory challenger.
