I just have a difficult time rating him above Antonio Cervantes, Aaron Pryor, Nicolino Locche, Julio Cesar Chavez, Kostya Tszyu, Barney Ross, Tony Canzoneri, Jack "Kid" Berg, Eddie Perkins, Duilio Loi, Wilfred Benitez, etc. The likes of Henry Armstrong and Jose Napoles could very well be rated at 140 as well since they weighed in between 135-140 for many of his fights.
Well no one say you have to, but he certainly ranks among the best.
