        Johnson
        Tarver
        Trinidad
        Winky
        Eastman
        Joppy
        Echols
        Allen
        Oscar
        Taylor (Close loss)
        Taylor 2 (Close loss)
        Calzaghe (Close loss)
        But, Calzaghe, Tarver, and Winky was not at MW... Is a MW ranking. I do go back and forth on who rates higher between Hopkins and Lamotta. today is Lamotta, tomorrow might be hopkins, I can make a case for either one to be higher... I do think Hopkins is easily top 10 though...

        But, my top 5 is...

        1. SRR
        2. Greb
        3. Monzon
        4. Hagler
        5. Ketchell

          Is the MW division the most talented division throughout history?

            I dunno...everything from Feather to Middle is wildly deep and good. I probably favor Welter for talent but it's a rough run.

              What is next after HW? Are you going to do like a top 25 P4P? I would love to see that... Everybody on here would complain....

                I second your last statement. I really enjoy reading Cliff's work, even when I don't agree with what he has to say, or who he picks in a fight. However, I can imagine that list inspiring a 10+ page thread of flaming him.

                  Top 100.

                  And in violation of regular P4P list rules, I'll include Heavyweights.

                    I respect Cliff he does his homework. And, he also gives a reason why he ranks the fighters were they are... so I can't really complain. I can just give my opinion on the matter. But, imagine he does a P4P list? Like you said 10+ page thread of people flaming him.

                      Top 100 will be ten parts all written in the long form of these divisional top tens.
