Mike Hailwood is probably the greatest motorcycle racer ever. He won on every kind of bike, big, small, 2 stroke, 4 stroke, private, works. He won on every kind of circuit, short or road. He came back from retirement to win all his races on IOM with Ducati.
Marquez is the only modern rider who shows a glimmer of the same talent, but he only races on short circuits which allow lots of crashes with little penalty.
To be the best ever he needs to demonstrate his ability on a real circuit. Anybody think he might try it?
