You keep saying this but it simply isn't true. You just aren't knowledgeable enough to appreciate how good of an opponent guys like Julio Cesar Gonzalez, Thulani Malinga, Virgil Hill etc are.

Wasn't Virgil Hill already done when they fought? I know he was 84 medalist and RJJ is a 88 medalist, and Virgil never was much on head movement, IIRC

I do appreciate guys like Hill and Gonzales. I just didn't remember the fights off the top of my head.
But please with Malinga. He was a tough guy who lost damn near every time he stepped up in competition. He already had 8 losses when he fought Roy, Roy gave him is 9th, and he finished his career 9-4 after that
Highlighting that fight is like highlighting James Quick Tillis on Tyson's resume.
He was a journeyman. Had a good career, got some good fights, lost them all. Is a good tough opponent for anyone, but can't beat top guys.
He's safe. A crowd pleaser who will take a whopping from a legit contender and won't fold early
