Some names to add to those who have already been mentioned:

**** Tiger
Luis Manuel Rodriguez
Joe Brown
Jimmy Carter
Carlos Ortiz
Nicolino Locche
Pascual Perez
Jose Torres
Willie Pastrano
Flash Elorde

After that you might want to check out some of the more unheralded contenders of the era, but it's better to know the champions at first since you'll get a look at their opponents as well.

Thanks for posting in this thread. I will check out those guys as well when I find the time. Im especially interested in Torres and Patterson due to thier Tyson connection
