  • Top 5 Light Flyweights

    If you are ranking the five best light flyweights of all time, which boxers would you choose? This is my personal Top 5.

    1. Jung-Koo Chang
    2. Hilario Zapata
    3. Humberto Gonzalez
    4. Myung-Woo Yuh
    5. Yoko Gushiken

    Does someone more than I here even watch fights below middleweight?

      I'm not sure who I would rank.

      Admittedly, Flyweight is the division of the orginial 8 I have the least interest in albeit it has great fighters amongst it. Not that's it's not a rich division, it is. Just a lot of them went under the radar.

      I'd have Canto in there of course, possibly #1, not sure.

      Panco Villa.

      Jimmy Wilde would be up there, hard to rank him though.

      Wolgast perhaps?

      Benny Lynch, Fidel LaBarba.

      A lot of great Flyweights.

          Good list.

          I might put Carbajal in there instead Gushiken.

          Probably have Gonzalez #1.

          How about Jorge Arce? Probably wouldn't be in my Top 5 probably Top 10 though.

            Yeah, Arce could probably sneak into Top 10.Then there are German Torres, Luis Esteba, Michael Carbajal, Saman Sorjaturong and a couple of more fighters who can be in the discussion to be ranked in the top 10.

              Don't worry. I'm just glad someone here actually could name some flyweights.

                There's certainly a list of posters that could talk about Flyweights and Light Flyweights.

                Sadly, this section is slow most of the time.

                  I was going to say Esteba.

                  Maybe Matala could be in the up there.

                    I have not been a member here for a long time, so therefore I ask. Why is this section slow most of the time? Did it used to be much more activity in Boxing History before?
