    Leaving these names out,and assuming they are your picks too? Which four make up the next quartet as in the ATG's at 160lbs?
    Jones Jnr?
    Mickey Walker?
    Stanley Ketchel?
    Bernard Hopkins?

    Who are your four?
    No non middle title holders please?

    Ketchel, Hopkins, Ryan, Steele.

    If you're allowing belt-holders (Steele) which you are (Jones).

    Agreed. So many good fights.. He was just to hard core not to be in there. One of the tough guys of all time

    I don't pick Roy because he sort of handpicked much of his career. Later he fought better guys after he lost.
