        Bantamweight
        Eder Jofre, Miguel Lora, Orlando Canizales, Carlos Zarate, Lionel Rose.
        Tough list too make apart from the first 3, have always been more interested in Bantamweight then any other weightclass, no specific reason I guess.

        Was at it's best in the 60's / 70's or now, too lose to call really.

              Probably Middleweight.

              Favourite 5 fighters from that Division;

              Carlos Monzon
              **** Tiger
              George Benton
              Joey Giardello
              James Toney or Emile Griffith? Do they count?

              Neither spent most of their career's at MW. Obviously not Griffith, but both fought there and can't really think who I'd have in that lost spot who's legacy was almost entirely at MW.

                Maybe a Hagler or a B-Hop, or SRR??

                  It's not an ATG list. Just a list of my favourites at that weight.

                  Not a fan of Hopkins and not a big fan of Hagler either.

                  Big fan of Ray Robinson but MW wasn't his best weight. Then again neither was Griffith's or Toney's but I I'm a bigger fan of Griffith and Toney than I am Robinson. But I'm a big fan of all 3.

                    Yup, yup. That's why I threw out SRR, Hell cause Toney & Emille weren't career there!!
