    Top 100 ... he's good now but he couldn't match those guys from back in the day ... a featherweight bouts against the likes of Armstrong, Pep, Mayweather, Chavez ... Lightweight fights against Whitaker and Whitaker ...

    Fighting prime DLH, Morales, Barrera, Castillo ...

    Kostya Tszyu, Shane Mosley (lightweight), Roberto Duran (lightweight), Aaron Pryor (light welterweight) ... Alexis Arguello ... Salvador Sanchez (featherweight)
    Azuma Nelson, Wifredo Gomez, Hector Camacho ...

    I can't blame him for peaking at the right time, but he missed out on some of the best featherweights, super featherweights, lightweights, and light welterweights.

    He's top 100 just based on his accomplishments --

    Worst poll ever. Only choices are 1, 2, or 3?!?! I didn't even bother voting because no way I could put him that high..

    He's somewhere between top 40-50. He could jump higher depending on future fights.


    Gotta agree with other people saying the poll choices are just plain wrong.
