I think if he did a few things differently he could have been a top 25 of all time fighter and a top 5 lightweight, maybe even top 3. He was 38-0 before he suffered his first loss to Vernon Forrest. Up to that point you could easily argue that he had already accomplished as much as or maybe more than PBF. He fought some very quality guys and I think he became a little underrated afer his losses to Forrest and Wright. But he was past his best weight by then and still fighting the best and beating them. He could have retired 38-0 and still been a HOFer. ODLH, Molina, Holiday, Leija, Rivera, Taylor all guys he had beaten in his undefeated raign.
