    All-time who are the 3 best of each of these weights? No runner-ups or honorable mentions. Just flat out the 3 best you've ever seen.

    Lightweight

    Middleweight

    Heavyweight

    Chronological order:

    Lightweight is easy, Gans, Leonard, Duran

    Middleweight is trickier, Fitzsimmons, Greb, Hopkins

    Heavyweight is easy for the top two (Louis Ali).

    The other slot is in constant rotation, but I will give it to Jack Johnson today.
