Or by default aka the middleweight division is not exactly loaded with talent right now. His #2 ranking is certainly debatable but far from scandalous. His win over N'dam is underrated I believe. Murray and Geale have fought better opposition but came up short more often than not.
well since the division isn't loaded shouldn't you go with the proven guys over the non-proven guys? quillin's had 1 top ten win. murray should have beaten martinez, has a draw with sturm, and gave ggg a good fight. all 3 of those guys are above a guy like ndam and quillin barely won that one so its no surprise that murray's resume has more "blemishes" than quillins. it also has more good things on it. both things should be considered when making rankings not just blemishes, and since quillin has very few good things i find it hard to place him above those guys especially since his performances against his 2 toughest opponents ndam and rosado were so weak.
