    Some of us made it clear it was based on what we've personally seen.

    Arrogance because you're a billion years old is quite boring tbh.

    A few fights, but not his whole career, no. I will freely admit I don't have the time, nor the energy, to watch youtube fights of people like Herol for days on end.

    I would rather admit I don't know enough about him than lie and pretend otherwise.

    Jab wise best I have seen Conteh,Lewis & Bruno.Chin Eubank then Froch.

    Excitement Benn win or lose.

    Graham was a nightmare to fight as was on his best nights Kirkland Laing.

    Best overall Calzaghe for what I have seen.Wilde & Fitz are legendary.

    Is this a wind up thread that no-one else has taken the bait for?

    Edit: And that isn't in ref to the mispelling of his name

    Your first sentence I mainly agree with.It LOOKED like he was tackling the best,but there was something a bit lacking in all of them at the time he fought them.My opinion is,Kevin Kelley was the best he fought,but slightly past his peak.An argument could be made for Steve Robinson to be the best also,he'd have beat a lot that Naz beat.
    Buchanan gets my vote.Avoided nobody.Beaten by probably more a beast than Barrera but wanted a return.Didnt get one but continued to fight top men.Hungry fighter.

    Think he was pointing out that he'd seen more than most,and was making a joke of it to my eye.Dont see it as arrogant Solaris,and could see his point.
