Yeah, especially as it was also against the prime great Kid Cervantes. One of the great feats in boxing history. Similar to Tyson and his destruction of the HW division at only 20. Man, just incredible.
All of the top ten ATGs are one in a million fighters that we'll never see again. Robinson, Armstrong, Greb, Pep, Leonard, Duran etc....
Ali of course. Ray Leonard for his classic media darling image but backing it up with some of the all time great shows of fighting spirit and heart. Duran and his scarily skillful ferocity being the first ever lightweight champ to win the MW title, fighting in five decades etc.
Hearns being the first four and five division champ and his incredible speed, power and skill.
Locche for his amazing defensive prowess. Whitaker.
Hopkins. Walcott. Pacman.
So many you could throughout history for single feats they achieved, like Foreman, Benitez, Duran, Pac, as well as guys whose whole career was freakish like Leonard, Robinson, Duran, Pep, Greb, Armstrong, etc etc etc.
