My best guess would be that he was at his physical prime for the Burns bout. The thing is, back then there was no real HW prime as we would think...
For me, I would say his pre-title run is where the body of work looks most impressive. Starting with the Griffin bout in 02', he has two wins...

Conn is the easiest for him and is KO'd Charles is ahead, but get overwhelmed eventually because his pop isn't deterring Dempsey enough Walcott...
May vs. JLC 1. May - Clear 2. Even - May controlled more of the round, but Castillo landed the two best punches of the round. 3. JLC - May...

Well you did, because you said "we also need to consider a bias or only for or against fighters you like?" That seems to imply that I do have a...
