    How does he rate among the other lightweight greats legacy wise and h2h wise

    He would be in any fight with any great lightweight who ever lived

    he rates right up there. One of the best lightweights who ever laced them up. And, in my opinion, in an argument with duran over whos higher at the weight

    A tad overrated by some but a top 7 lightweight for sure.

    Excellent LW, and could be most any LW on any given night, but I wouldn't favor him over somebody like Duran let's say.

    Awesome fighter. I suspect he may have struggled most against ATG slicksters.
