    Was he ranked in the top 10 you mean?

    He was ranked number 1 before. And he was in the top 5 a couple other times I think.

      yea. i was reading his record and he started as a welterweight, then to middleweight, supermiddleweight, lightheavyweight, and then cruiserweight (current).

      heres his record http://www.boxrec.com/print.php?boxer_id=000303

        IMO, I consider him one of the great p4p fighters. It just seems that Leonard and Hagler were just better. But anybody who can go from Welter to Cruiser and win titles at each division along the way, has to be considered a top P4P in my book.

              that's weird. ring magazine doesn't have him on the cruiserweights list.

                I don't believe he ever won a CW belt or anything....In fact I think his first fight at CW was recently since he came back in his 40s.I could be wrong but thats what I think.

                  Ok after a little research I see he did have several fights at CW late in his career.....He never won a major world title or anything.....the last world title he held was the WBA LHW title after beating an at the time 30-0 Virgil Hill.......

                    no wonder he's not appearing in the top cruiserweight lists. he lost the ibo cruiserweight title in 2000.
