    It is rubbish. There are plenty of legendary fighters who became great wihout beating another prime great.

    Of course, beating a great and dominating you era...well, that's even better.

    I agree its rubbish, anyway in this modern internet hypercritical age as soon as a "great" fighter loses he was "overrated" and loses his claim to greatness
