            I made this very thread a few months back but the GD search here is ****ing useless. If I find it I'll link it.


            Edit

            Found:
            My Top Ten ATG LHWs - Boxing Forum (boxingscene.com)

            Not champion exclusive, I just noticed that criteria, I like it. Give me a while to think on it.
