    He would possibly make the top 15, for sure top 20.

    He has one of the greatest wins ever at lightweight over Duran (and the great 3 fight series), but not enough else to be top 10 IMO. I'd say top 15.

    Between 10-15 sounds reasonable.

    Would be higher if he had taken care of himself.

    I think I had him at no10, he beat the no1, giving him 2 other stiff contests and was a champ in his own right, aswell as showing wonderful ability
