If a fighter has 100 fights say like JCC does that mean he is remembered as a greater figter than a guy with say 50 fights? I know that opposition plays a role and that in 100 fights you have alot of bums in there but that also shows alot of persistency.

Here's a super hypothetical.

Let's say there is a guy out there who's 5-1 (5KO) right now, and for some reason Mayweather took him as a tune up and the guy wins. Then goes on the following run...

Mayweather
Cotto
Pacquiao
Margarito
Hatton
Williams

I dont know why or how this happens it just does, now the guy is 11-1 (11KO) and he retires. Does the fact that he only had 12 fights make him less of a great fighter as opposed to having the same fights listed above, but padding his record with lesser fights up to say 40-1?

Whats your take?
