    Definitely top 5, and just a tremendous person and boxer that many have overlooked.

    He is one of my all time favorites.

    Name me a club fighter that fought on HBO at least 7 times. Headlined numerous ESPN cards. Appeared on NBC and CBS.
    And then headlined an HBO card.
    Name me one.
