To be fair that's pretty much any good to great fighter. We still bring up the fact gamboa hurt t craw even tho t craw whipped his ass. Boone knocking down dre. Callazo hurting run time before quitting. Ect.)
Ehhh kinda.
Gamboa was legit competitive with Crawford in those early rounds and he hurt dude, all while being undersized as hell. That's a legit critique, but then again Gamboa isn't' a scrub.
Boone has a reputation for giving most top guys tough or competitive fights.
Those examples don't' compare to Stevens or Rosado landing a few solid shots and then getting Akuma combos for the rest of the fight, but cats still finding some sort of moral trophy to give them nikkas.
Guys like Brook, Ouma, and Monroe who were solid dudes that had some legit good moments against GGG is different than praising the one right hand Geale landed before he got smashed into the canvas.
That's all Im saying.
