Uhhhh............. yeah.

Should we do this with the Sugar Ray Robinson? He had 3 fights in a row against people making their debuts when he had 150+ fights. Those were not the only debuts on his record either, he also fought a few guys with 0 wins and many more with losing records. And he’s considered the greatest. I don’t think fighters should be judged for fighting bad fighters. But whether or not they fight good fighters. And both these guys mentioned did
most top fighters have a few bad opponents on their record. naoya's last opponent was far from deserving. maybe his last two. fighters should be judged on who & when they fought
It is the mark of an educated mind to be able to entertain a thought without accepting it.
