This is been said before here but in an interview done by RJJ he humbly said:
"Ricardo is #1 P4P IMO, the mans got tremendous talent I don't know why hes so low?" - RJJ

The interview was done in 97-98.
I think I saw that and I also heard RJJ say it when he was commentating a Lopez fight. He was waxing lyrical over Lopez,saying he was one of the best fighters in the world and his technique was awesome. So was Larry Merchant.Great stuff.
