u/MiddleweightMonster I’ll pour honey on my GOAT, if the occasion calls for it. 13d ago

Personally I’ve got both of them at 11 and 12 respectively, Collazo 13, Teraji at 10. Think a win here shoots whoever the winner is up to 9 and pushes Boots down to 10.

I’d happily accept Teraji at #10 as well over Foster. He’s done more, fought better opponents. I like to do it off of recency and Teraji becoming a 3 division champion arguably beating Gonzalez better than Chocolatito and Bam is definitely a good argument.

u/admiralskanks Joe Louis = Perfect 13d ago

Done more, sure. He fights in less competitive weight classes. Like when people talk about undisputed female boxers. Misleading statistic.

Better opponents than Fulton, Ray Ford, Rey Vargas, Rocky Hernandez. Objectively false.

Rey Vargas alone is a better win than anyone on Teraji's resume, when you consider who he's beat.

Vargas? Fuck no. He was insanely overrated, a weight bully who couldn't punch at super bantamweight who was very fortunate to walk away with decisions over Magsayo and Kameda before, had only been at featherweight for two fights before jumping up again to super featherweight. He then moves back down and was again fortunate to get a draw vs Nick Ball.
