I have read a few times that some folks believe that he only fought "taxi cab drivers" and wasn't a great fighter. Why is this? I was just looking over his record and thinking about some of those fights live ... Personally, I believe that he was an all-time great. Looking down the list, Ruben Castillo, Roger Mayweather, Dwight Pratchett, Rocky Lockridge, Juan LaPorte, Edwin Rosario, Bazooka Limon, Sweet Pete Whitaker, Oscar De La Hoya, Kostya Tszyu, Macho Camacho, ... Win or lose, controversy or no controversy, those are some incredible opponents to me.
