    He simply hasn't had the tough fights to prove his mettle yet. He hasn't faced good enough opponents to clearly expose his flaws.
    Unless the suggestion is that he'd run through those all-time greats WITH EASE too, then we have to assume he'd be tested like never before if he had to face them.

    He's overrated in comparison to his resume.....

    But guess what??? This ain't exactly new. Other fighters have also never beaten ATG's in their prime and still get lots of praise.

    Monzon to me is the greatest middleweight ever. I've never seen someone so wiry with such amazing strength.
