Even his title reign is a bit overrated since he dropped one of his belts and avoided the best up and comers after '82.
90s for talent, 70s because all the major fights actually happened and we got all the closure we needed.
He fought Like a geriatric od what I meant. The story is that one of Georges cornermen was urging him to take it slow and it backfired. Whatever...
