In my opinion,DM is a LHW legend.
If all the 25 dariuz's defenses woulda be seen on HBO by american people,and so american boxin press.It would be an ATG in USA.I really believe it.
He faced an opposition good as Roy 175 opposition and he fought great fights.
25 defenses!It isn't nothing.

When you are an european fighter,you have to beat everyboy in Europe and in USA tough most of last SMW and LHW champs were in Europe.I LAUGH.
DM isn't an all time great and a great LHW with all these defenses??But Hopkins is a great middleweight??
Why??Becuz B Hop lost his titles to Jones and Taylor??Because he fought blown up welterweight legends and bums like Joppy??
Or because overated Pavlik is great at 170??Gimmy a break.It's all about HBO.Don't get me wrong,Hopkins is a great middleweight,but Dariuz is a great LHW too.

Originally posted by daggum View Postno he didn't. why don't you go look it up. he only fought like 5 guys ranked in the top 10. roy fought much more. ring is biased though right euro-boy. the ring doesn't understand how good guys like Ka-Dy King, Nestor Hipolito Giovannini and Everardo Armenta Jr really are.
DM fought six guys who at some point held the lineal or a major belt at 75 (Barber, Rocchigianni, Hill, Griffin, Gonzalez, Tiozzo) going 5-2 w/ 2 KOs, stopped once. Easily could have been 4-3 and stopped twice depending on how one views Rocky I.
Roy fought ten who at some point held lineal/major titles at 75 (McCallum, Griffin, Hill, Del Valle, Johnson, Gonzalez, Woods, Tarver, Johnson, Calzaghe) going 8-5 w/3 KO and stopped twice. Could easily have been 7-4 depending on how one saw Tarver I (I thought RJ pulled that one by a point).
Roy's comp was slightly tougher but not by eons. These two needed each other historically speaking withing the confines of 75.
