Hagler/Monzon

Good list, I've always liked Langford at MW.
Don't like Hopkins but given his record you'd have to throw him in the mix too.

SRR was the greatest fighter ever to fight at middleweight, but basing my list solely on middleweight accomplishments:

1. Harry Greb
2. Carlos Monzon
3. Sugar Ray Robinson
4. **** Tiger
5. Marvin Hagler

Wrong , Sam Langford is the greatest fighter ever to fight at middleweight .

What record ? losing twice to a never was Jermain Taylor that besides losing to Pavlik (*2) , Froch and Abraham the way he did , he also deserved to lose to Cory Spinks and Ronald Wright also ?

Too uppity for you? Big though thought you liked big fighters?
Had a few more fights at MW than Langford who lets be honest you only like because he fought and beat guys bigger than himself.

Big but weak and you ignored the glory in his achievements against Jermain Taylor.
He needed to be the dirtiest fighter of the last 50 years at least to achieve his poor achievements , because being big was not enough for his lack of talent.
His talent was in his ability to foul .

though thought you liked big fighters?

Wrong again.

Had a few more fights at MW than Langford who lets be honest you only like because he fought and beat guys bigger than himself.

True here.
He KOd many guys much bigger than himself and was seldom stopped himself.
