    also grouping opponents into quality vs non quality opposition is not a great way to judge things and it puts the guys who dont have the greatest quality wins into the same category as guys who do. maybe that was your intention? not all wins are created equal. i'll take benitez beating cervantes or duran over floyd beating old mosley, old hoya, old marquez, old pac, etc...or prime castillo, prime corrales, prime baldomir, etc...sure he racked up more b level wins but im going for quality. im going for a sugar ray leonard type resume with 5 great wins instead of 20 solid wins.
    and there you have it. a peaceful solution to people not agreeing with each other.

    trust me, though. i have no bias against benitez and/or those he fought/beat. i just feel hes mentioned too much (highly ?) as if he were some world beater.

    the youngest or the 1st to do ''something'' doesnt impress me unless youre the 1st (AND ONLY) ww to beat up a full blown hw. or you were 15 when you did it.

      Hearns would have knocked Gayweather's head into Kingdom Come.

        Would not call giving hell to SSL in prime(maybe early prime)and also giving a PRIME Hearns a very good fight plus beating HOF A Cervantez at 17 overrated by any means.What more you want to be ATG plus other fights I posted.

            I agree Floyd the better fighter but Benetiz was CLEAR ATG.Some day people will give him credit(Floyd)listen to the fighter's that fight today and many from his era.Its a clear choice Floyd best of gen and one of the best of all time easy.

                  Well when you fight ATGs somone has to lose.I mean that makes no sence if the BEST FIGHTER to EVER live fought the 2nd BEST to EVER live.Would the loser still not be great?I mean kind of extreme example but you see your flawed thinkin?

                    OK now lets make Hearns 130-135, Floyd's natural weight does he beat Mayweather, I doubt it

                      lol...hearns was a natural 147 lb. fighter....

                      so the only way floyd can beat him is to weight drain 'em....lol
