    Well, he is one of the best to ever grace 140 that's for sure.

    I don't know about top 100 but probably not too far north of it.

    I named 3 guys on the fringes who have achieved more than him.I don't know that much about boxing pre-70's so I can't do a list.

    Yes, maybe at the bottom end of the 100. People forget what he has done for boxing, he is one of the most popular fighters ever and has made tens of millions for the sport as well as being in some great fights. If that isn't top 100 then I don't know what is.

    I'd say yes. Due to my extreme bias for Ricky, I'll put him in at 100.

    But honestly, if Pac beats Oscar and Ricky beats Pac....where would he be then?

    Definite No. I am a massive ricky fan so I'm still hoping he can make me think possibly by the end of his career. I think Saturday showed he still has something left, but he wasted some of his best years.

    Nope, but I think he can achieve it, I mean he's only 30. Could potentially have some all the career defining fights ahead.
