    No Freddie Steele, Eddie Booker, Charley Burley, Fitzsimmons or Langford (depends on which weight you rank him) ?.

    Props on making a list though, mostly solid names but I'd change a few around.

      Thanks. I may make a couple modifications later, only when it comes to placings. Fitzsimmons I reckon made more noise as a lhw and hw and Langford...not sure. He also was more famous as a hw I think.

        Rating those four fighters over Hagler is absurd to say the least. I wouldn't rate Robinson at middleweight higher than Hagler either.

          Fine, make your own list then. I say all those guys could and would beat Hagler.

              He has a serious dislike of Hagler.

                I think it's more of a serious love McCallum.

                Nice to see the inclusion of Darcy, some say he was better than Stanley Ketchel.

                  Its an ok list hagler is a bit low imo and I'm probably biased cause I'm a huge fan of Jones jnr ... and I guess he wasn't champ at the weight for that long .... but I think the middleweight version of Roy beats a hell of a lot of guys on that list.
