I see most people put him in their top 5...
But consider this,
He lost to all the legendary names and only beat one by a very close decision
SRL
Marvin Hagler
Wilfred Benetiz
Thomas Hearns
His lightweight record was padded and imo, he fought in a weak era. His 2 main opponents were
Esteban De Jesus and Ken Buchahan of that weight.
He then beats the beatable Davey Moore and the lucky Iran Barkley... These were his main opponents, but is it really right to put him in the top 5 P4P list of all time?
Perhaps overrated?
