    In your opinion.

    Could it be argued that it wasnt until his super bout with Oscar?

    The media makes fighters "elite". Is there a fking blueprint or a guideline for an elite fighter in your HUMBLE opinion? Genardo Hernandez would be elite too many, Corrales would be elite, Castillo, Victariano Sosa was a very good fighter who didn't fight long enough for the typical "normal" boxing fan to know who he was.

    I never really considered Genaro to be a great fighter though.

    He was comprehensively beaten by the two best opponents he fought. What were his best wins? How good do you rate those wins?
