I rate fighters when they where in the peak of their careers when judging them on how good they where... It's like saying Brashear when he was with Montreal he was the same fighter he was when at Vancouver or Philadelphia a few years later, he was not..

Or was Eric Cairns the same standard of fighter when he was with Rangers than when he was with the Islanders, He was not. He was much better when he was a few years older and stronger and wiser...
