          I'll start with Pittsburgh.

          1. Harry Greb
          2. Billy Conn
          3. Charley Burley

          No doubt in my mind Greb is the greatest fighter this city ever produced, but I am really up in the air about Conn and Burley. I rate both very high all time and give a slight edge to Conn based on my opinion he would win a close head to head fight at their respective best.

          Feel free to debate this and name some cities and fighters of your own.
