If you continually face top opposition and perform fairly well, I don't think you can be considered a bum.
A lot of their losses were close fights and were good fights. Glen pretty much fought everyone and was always regarded as a legitimate test to anyone. He was always considered a hard guy to fight. He was robbed quite a few times too.
Salido fought for world titles on several occasions and won some of them. He got robbed against Martinez.
Not world class elite fighters, but far from bums.
It's not about the number of losses you have, its about how you fought when you loss. If you got beat up, KOed, or clearly outclassed in multiple losses, you're not good. If you lose in a close fight, or got robbed, the loss doesn't look that bad.
