Fought average Welterweights, and old middleweight cans, and HBO, and a large majority of the boxing public - being the idiots they were - bought into the whole story of him being a destroyer.
When De La **** is bouncing around on his toes and popping you with the jab, and smacking your face with combos - guess what? You ain't no monster.
The fact that I saw so many people rate him as a top 5 Welterweight of all-time, shows how much of an overrated **** he is.

when good fighters can't consistently beat you , you're better than just good.
are they all time great? probably not but they're great fighters.
Just please tell me you rate Fitzsimmons above Jones?
Tell me you don't fall for Jones picking up trinkets and avoiding the best in divisions only to "cement" a legacy by beating a fat Mexican twat by the name of Ruiz?
I can give Tito credit for facing everyone, but Popkins and Jones were criminal when it came to picking & Choosing.

how the hell is bob fitzsimmons in the mix?
roy jones fought EVERYONE. who the hell did he nitpick? silly talk.
aside from michalczewski roy fought the top guys at 175. he might have missed a few guys at 160-168 but he didn't stay there long.
hopkins didn't really duck anyone either. but his division was god awful. plus his best wins were against smaller guys.
bad fighter = your tomato can , guys who lose more times than they win
mediocre fighter = can consistently beat bad fighters but can't consistently beat or always has a hard time against average fighters
average fighter = can consistently beat bad fighters but can't consistently beat good fighters
good fighters = can consistently beat average fighters but cant beat a great fighter
great fighter = can consistently beat good fighters and only has a hard time with other great fighters or once in a while a good fighter who is a bad matchup
all time great fighter = can consistently beat everyone , only has problems with other great fighters but only occassionally.
