The big 4+1???

benitez lost to hamsho 2 times and then hagler fought hamsho 2 times. that's why hagler - benitez (the only matchup between those 5) didn't happen.

Easy. Benitez. It would probably have been the 5 kings if he had fought Hagler.

He didn't turn pro until '81. Duran, Hagler, Hearns, & Leonard were all already champs by that point. Oh ok thank you very much.

Did he? Excuse me then I was under the impression he was the same era and just not popular enough. He didn't turn pro until '81. Duran, Hagler, Hearns, & Leonard were all already champs by that point.

probably aaron pryor or some ****

Sugar Ray Leonard. Roberto Duran, Marvin Hagler, Thomas Hearns for that generation/group if you have to pick a 5th guy--who would it be? He has to be from that era. the 5th King was Benitez

Jose Pipino Cuevas defended his title 11 times with 10 KO's and was a wrecking machine. But he burned out young cause he turned pro at 14. To this day, he still holds the record as the youngest welterweight champion ever. Benitez would also be a 5th type. Coincidentally, the youngest Junior Welterweight ever. McCallum came along a tad late. But him against Tony Ayala and Roberto Duran when there was talk these guys would fight each other at 154 would have been great. You know your stuff.

If you had to name one it'd be Wilfred Benitez, who was as talented as anyone who has ever lived, but burned out and got caught on drugs. You could make an argument for Aaron Pryor as well. McCallum came after them Did he? Excuse me then I was under the impression he was the same era and just not popular enough.

Simple, the guy who should be mentioned with these fighters as it is, Wilfredo Benitez. Co signing this.
