You could make a strong case for him being an ATG....

Time will definitely tell where he ends up being ranked, but he was definitely a very talented boxer....

i didnt mean it like that, im just saying he has a higher chance of being a hofer than he does of making any atg lists.

Depends on how you define ATG. I think he's certainly one of the top 100-125 fighters all time. Maybe even higher if I dissected his career. So considering how many fighters there have been through out history thats elite company.
