    Yeah, because you don't have a clue what you're talking about when it comes to this part of light welterweight history you're just clicking on boxrec, I didn't think much of it either before I went into it. What about Leroy Haley, Billy Costello, Johnny Bumphus, Gene Hatcher, who was the best of that period?

    Do you even know who Muangsurin is? Do you understand the context of my argument?

    Anyway, I've removed the tags so you can check out the links.

    Still, I can't see him breaking the top ten at the weight.

    No, all lists are very subjective, but title reigns are important when it comes to ranking the top tens for me.

    Sorry, quickly saved to go back and actually remove the tags, sounded harsh. Please see above.

    What trinkets or actual 'I am the no.1 in this division and nobody beat me for this amount of fights' reigns?

    I think it's a fair ranking assessment if it's the latter.

    Mamby Vs Kim
    Mamby Vs De Jesus
    Mamby Vs Kimpuani
    Mamby Vs Brooks

    I also have home video footage of his title defence against Tomas Americo, the first World title bout staged in Indonesia IIRC. EDIT: No, haven't uploaded that.

    Are all my uploads Sir. Enjoy.

    Not necessarily trinkets, unless its lineal. However it becomes more difficult to rank when there are different champs at the same time. Mine are probably on dominance in a lot of aspects. I do think Julio Cesar Chavez is probably number one at the weight.

    ok you got me hooked good , berg would beat hatton bad ,hatton would try to grab and hit which will only help in getting himself ****ed up ,only my opinion but berg as many fighters of his era were better skilled at inside close fighting than fighters of the modern era as they were allowed to get on and fight more back then. and if hatton then decides to stand and free fight with berg he is in for more pain as the workrate punch output of berg is of a much higher rate than hatton , Hatton would find himself lost in a blizzard of blows and lose a decision if his eyes hold up. hatton was not a big enough puncher to worry berg





    that's my rant over with

    Relying on lineal is lazy imo.

    I mean if only lineal counts, serrano > arguello.
