HOFs/ATGs that defined their career in a junior/super weight class

[SlySlickSmooth]

How many great Hall of Famers or ATGs created their legacy that sealed them as one of the best fighters ever in a junior/super weight class?

A good example of this would be Aaron Pryor. Can you name some others?

Ward? He cleaned out the SMW division, and beat Froch, who himself is a top 10 ATG at SMW.

His career isn't over yet, I think.

Calzaghe beating Lacy and Kessler at Super Middleweight.

[Larry the boss]

Chavez sr-140

Hattons best win was at 140

He will go into the HOF

[bojangles1987]

Kosta Tszyu at 140.

I agree with Calzaghe, Hatton, and Tszyu.

Not sure how I feel about including Chavez Sr.

Will Floyd Mayweather count? I know he mostly fights at 147 but...

His best performances wins were at 130. Corrales and Hernandez. His most popular wins were against De La Hoya, Cotto, and Canelo. All held at 154.

Edit: Canelo was at catch weight, but whatever. It was still a super/jr weight class.

I think I misworded the criteria.

So no, Floyd wouldn't count as his career is also defined by the many weight classes he conquered.

Guys like Pryor and Calzaghe really only had a career in one weight. The light welterweight and super middleweight divisons.
