    Hmmm I still think its a great win- Gans is one of the greatest lightweights, and Langford's win was only a little over a year removed from Gans snagging his title.

    It's a great win no doubt. Langford just has so many fights and great wins its hard to determine which one stands out.

    I love McClarnin. Canada :happy

    Truth be told I prefer any of Macs big wins over Charles against Louis since Louis was shot to hell. I just feel bad after that one :-(

    I rate Charles' wins against Moore over any of Mac's best wins TBH. I'll put Charles vs Moore in and Mac against Ross

    Updated. Pretty healthy wins list we got going on. Always open to interpretation though.

    I feel bad that the 2000-2010 era gets no love.

    :!:

    Morales/Pacquiao I, Pacquiao/Barrera, Jones/Ruiz, Trinidad/Hopkins are really the biggest I can think of.

    True that, should have given some lenience to 2010. Oh well!

    I want to rate Hamed/Barrera but it was clear Hamed wanted nothing to do with boxxing even before fighting Barrera. So sad
