              He's my #1 Middleweight also.

              He's definitely Top 30, for me.

              Monzon is a perfect fighter to me, fought every body, beat pretty much every body. Had very few weaknesses, skilled, heart, chin, everything.

              My favourite fighter. Or 1A with Alexis Arguello.

                without a doubt a top three middleweight

                i rank he, robinson, and greb in a tier slightly above hopkins (a bonafide great in his own right.)


                in terms of the top 100 fighters of all time? he's usually listed around 75-25 on most credible lists, which is fine for me.


                he could basically do it all. he had a great chin, a very good punch, he was a true ring general, his jab was odd looking, but very effective.

                he's every bit a great fighter.

                  Probably a top 3 MW, and around Top 25.
