Who would you say are the 5 greatest 140 lbers ever? Where does Kostya Tszyu rank in light of his recent win?

My 5

1-Julio Cesar Chavez
2-Barney Ross
3-Kostya Tszyu
4-Aaron Pryor
5- Billy Petrolle

Should Tszyu even be on the list of top 5?

Roberto Duran should be on this list.

Damn Kara, you are one hot piece of a$$

Getting back to the subject. Tszyu should not be considered an all-time great at 140 pounds, at least not at this point.

1. Pryor
2. Whitaker
3. Chavez
4. Ross
5. De La Hoya

Why shouldn't Tszyu be an all time great 140 lber?

What else is missing? He has beaten the best fighters in his division.

Tszyu is the best 140 pounder I eva seen.
Smart, Strong and a great boxer.

Tszyu is one of the best. Just not too sure if we can rate
him the best ever given the deep talent of the past.
