    I'm sorry, what Gonzalez? Also you can throw in Ricardo Lopez.

      Toney and Whitaker rank far ahead of Eubank. There's also Barrera, Tszyu and Hamed to consider.

          Humberto Gonzalez. Lopez is tough to judge a case of A++ consistency but had a pretty weak list of opponents (just like Floyd Mayweather)

            With all due respect to Eubank, I just can't see how he has any claim for being the. #2 fighter of the 90's. Could you give an explanation of how you've deduced this?

                  you're here to make esoteric jokes that only a knowledgable boxing mind would understand.

                  it's become abundantly clear.

                    pone kingpetch was a "great" fighter that very rarely gets a mention...

                    some say he is overrated... but really now...

                    i hope someone with a good grasp about his exploits gives us a schooling about this forgotten fighter...
