yates beat better bbers who were in their prime then ronnie ever faced.
if ronnie faced the competition that yates did, he wouldn have not as seemed as great at his is perceived by some.
oh wait. he did. and the best he got was 6th.
HAHAHA.
even a 'prime' ronnie would have looked much different against a prime levrone, nasser, flex, shawn, paul, etc.
