    Fighting great fighters even with loses. For example, Edwin Valero has a good record but has not fought great fighters, therefore is not that famous.

      So far this poll is unanimus. So the obvious next question is, why are so many talented fighters of today suddenly being talked about as greater than more accomplished fighters who took on better comp?

        Because we have a lot of 18 years old kids posting here!!!!!!!!

        Na, because we have too many fan girls here. they are not a fan of the sport, just a 1 fighter cheerleader!!!!!!!

        Guys like B/Hop, Pac ect,ect,ect, can be talked as great fighters form this era.

        RJJ, trinidad,Holifield,ect,ect ALso greats

                You can almost tell the two people TS has in mind. Just something seems funny about it.

                  He's fought some excellent fighters and a boatload of other top fighters, as well as his losses to some great guys.

                  Rueban Castillo, Lockridge, LaPorte, Rosario, Limon, Ramirez, Taylor, Camacho, Oscar, Whitaker. Add to that his longevity and I think he clearly belongs amongst option B.
