His Legacy does not contain near as many repauatable names as the guys iv included.
When he did fall from grace it was brutally by a KO and he was unable to avenge.
His career isn't done yet so i can't fully judge.

(That may sound as if it conflicts with my inclusion of PBF but Floyd has done enough already to make the list having ticked off names such as DLH, Castillo, Gatti, Corrales even Chavez.)
Actually some people rate Whitaker in top 10 and Jones best wins are not far off Whitaker's im not saying Jones should be in top 10 but people slate Jones opposition all the time and his record is probably one of the best of his era.
