    Pretty much true. His best win at 160...probably Holmes or Trinidad.

    Fair enough! :thumbsup:

    I suppose it boils down to what you mean by "great light heavyweight". If we're talking top 10 all time, of course not. But that's a standard that's tricky for anyone to hold up to, bar those who were fortunate enough to be in a rare talented rich division. But he beat several of the tope 175'ers during his time there. He lost some along the way, so it was hardly a dominant reign by any stretch. But he hung in there with the best at the weight for almost a decade.
