    The only problem I have is people making out or pretending that Quillin was above guys like Lee, Lemieux, Murray or Geale. He wasn't, he's their level fighter basically, which is okay. Those are all decent fighters of course. (Well not according to the GGG hatred group, they're bums, but Quillin wasn't!)

    It was another case of an undefeated record fooling a sizeable contingent of people who do not want to look at who the guy has fought or the performances themselves.

    Correct. Neither should a single win. Quillin didn't have any good wins before beating N'Dam for the vacant title or after that.

    Yep, his best win is N'dam.. The guy Lemieux went on to dominate and destroy (don't tell me this is because he lost it after the Quillin defeat).

    The Wright win I don't even count, it was a pointless contest for me and after that who's his best win? Rosado. It's a really pathetic resume.

    He went on to fight Lee, who is a decent but limited fighter and he couldn't even defeat him. Yet for some strange reason (the mystique of the undefeated record is the reason) he was rated ABOVE guys likes Lee. I don't get why make such a big deal out of being undefeated.

    Rosado would be a good win if it was conclusive, but Quillin looked scared and was bullied by Rosado in later rounds before the ref saved Quillin using Rosado's cut.
