    Definitely Roy's LHW. I'll take Kessler & Byron Mitchell over Antonio Tarver and Virgil Hill.

      Both terrible, toss up until recently where SMW has dominated.

        Light Heavyweight was the weakest.

        At least Calzaghe had good solid domestic fighters.

            Well don't forget McCallum was 40 years old when Roy fought him and Hill was 34 with his best days behind him. I don't think that's any worse than the old Eubank at 168. Both were bad divisions.

                Virgil Hill did manage to win the cruiserweight title after he lost to Roy. Eubank did not although he had the much stiffer challenge. Then again, Virgil Hill was given more than a week to prepare for Roy.

                    Were you paying attention? Hill was past it when Roy fought him. He won the 'BA cruiser strap from an overrated Frenchy and the only good fight he had since was the UD to Mormek. So he had 1 good fight after Roy beat him I'd say his best days were certainly pre-Roy.
