That title count sounds about right and yes, he knew how to win more than anyone of his era. His record in finals was absolutely mind blowing and he was triple tough at the majors. If I had to guess, I'd suggest that Ralf Souquet, inclusive of his many wins at the European Championships, has more titles than Mike.
Sigel was the most impressive player I've ever watched. I have noted my opinion on this forum before that, had he not retired from competition in his prime, he, not Efren, would be considered the best player of all time. To me, however, he's still in the conversation, and Mosconi, Efren and Sigel are the clear three best players that ever lived.
I've always placed great meaning in the fact that two of Mike's peers called him "the greatest pool player I have ever faced." Those peers, by the way, were Efren Reyes and Earl Strickland.
