    His straight left was great. So was his left hook. And he could even switch hit and jab and lead effectively with the left.

      i have always been a fan of Duran, i would put him 4th. I think's roy's speed and power would have been too much for him.

        He was damn good but I don't know about 4th all time. Which great fighters did he meet at Bantamweight at that time?
        I picked Wilde because of the fact that at 100 lbs he knocked out middleweights. Not to mention that his record of being unbeaten in his first 98 bouts will probably stand forever. In addition, he is arguably the hardest hitter P4P in history and amassed nearly 100 KO's. Furthermore, none other than Gene Tunney said Jimmy Wilde was the greatest fighter he ever saw. The guys record speaks for itself.

        That's probably about right. I dropped him down a few notches because of his cowardly "no mas" against Leonard (arguably top 10 himself). Also the fact that he hung around SOOOOOOOO far past his prime and fought dozens of palookas in embarrassing venues takes away from his overall legacy. Still, nobody can deny what he achieved.
