    I'm gonna split hairs on this one:

    Greater - Gonzales
    Better - Loma

    What would Roman's record be if 81% of his fights were title fights?

    Gonzales took 21 fights to win his first world title.. its alright having 50 fights but its padded with uber drivers .. Loma would never have had 50 fights because he jumped straight in to world level in his mid 20s unlike almost any other fighter in history.. at world level you fight max 3 times a year.. to get to 50 fights hed be fighting 3 times a year til hes 40 LOL

    Are 81% of them title fights like Loma's current record is? Or is he taking 20+ fights against cab drivers to pad his record?

    My point here, is Loma went directly into title contention. How many current fighters have greater than 50% of their fights as title fights? Let alone 80%. That means Loma didn't take time to pad his record or develop skills professionally. He could easily have fought 20 Eastern European cab drivers to improve his record but he didn't.
