A fighter who unifies all the titles and cleans out a division and holds the title for a number of years is more note worthy than a fighter who has a big lunch and pinches a belt off a champion who is the weakest title holder at his weight class.
Benny Leonard dominated a very strong division for a number of years
Sugar Ray Leonard for me made his reputation at welterweight against Hearns, Benetiz and Duran. Dazzling the judges in the last 30 seconds of rounds against a faded Hagler or beating Lalonde don't do much for me.
One is for boxing fans one is more for stats fans
