    If there was a new ''ESPN - In This Corner Boxings Little Giants'' - post your picks

    Im talking about this documentary....



    Great documentary if you haven't seen it it's well worth a view.

    By little giants it basically means any non heavyweight former greats.

    So the ones in this documentary are
    • Benny Leonard
    • Henry Armstrong
    • Willie Pep
    • Sugar Ray Robinson
    • Roberto Duran
    • Sugar Ray Leonard


    So from 1990 - 2017 if you could pick 6 new little giants for this fantasy new documentary who would be your 6 and a slight explanation for why?

        Ray Robinson went up to light heavy, sorry should have made it clearer. Anyone under heavyweight can qualify for this one so please choose 6 only and all under heavyweight qualify.

          All those guys where in their prime at Welter or below though that’s what I meant anyway, SRR only had 1 fight at light heavy vs Joey Maxim.
          If I had to pick 6 from any weight under HW:
          Roy Jones
          Floyd
          Pac
          B-Hop
          De La Hoya
          Finito

            Think the top 4 we can all agree on.

            Pac, Floyd, Bhop, RJJ.

            The bottom two are very debatable though.

            Pernell Whitaker?

            Btw, i made a mistake in the OP...i meant from 1990-2017 not 1997.
