      I disagree...

      At least Mayweather fought the TOP fighters of 130 at his time...


      -Diego Corrales
      -Genaro Hernandez
      -Jesus Chavez
      -Carlos Hernandez
      -Jose Luis Castillo (at 135, was robbed in first fight but one 2nd)

      That right there is WAY better than RJJ entire career...

        Totally disagree....none of those names match with

        James Toney
        Bernard Hopkins
        Mike Macallum
        Virgil Hill
        John Ruiz

        This is a perfect example of wat this post is about....

          JT came down from 200
          Hopkins claim to fame came a decade after
          Mike McCallum was WAY past his prime and STILL gave RJJ fits...
          Virgil Hill was OLD and shot, and a OLD Thomas Hearns whooped him
          John Ruiz is a BUM!

                Hopkins nor Toney were what they are today then. They actually got better with time. Bad comparison. And Ruiz? Give me a break.

                    But that can't be helped at the end of the day it isnt the fighters who are rating themselves…!

                      They could fight someone with a pulse and get that rating at least...
