Fair enough. I cant say because I didn't see him in his prime.There are many people who say Arcaro and Cordero were the best. What I saw of him compared to what I have seen of Ramon . NO COMPARISON for me either.

As far as a whole career and longevity no one like Pincay. Again to my premise, a 4-5 year run and it seems like Ramon is only getting better. Like I said we will see.

I would have to take Russell Baze since he has over 11,700 wins and only trails Jorge Ricardo of South America by some
fifty some odd wins. Just kidding!!!!! :lol:

So you think Russell Baze would pull of the kind of ride Ramon did on Overanalyze if it was at a major track? That ride ramon pulled off reminded a bit of a young Laffit Pincay

You NEVER saw Pincay ride. How can you make that assessment?

Saw him ride during his last few years and saw some old YouTube video races of the past too.

Nope. Who said that??? Baze's current record is based on longevity only. He is also the world's most losing rider along with
being the second most leading rider behind Ricardo.
