    McCallum and Toney are hall of famers

    Gerald Mclellan and Julian Jackson were monster punchers Jackson put Terry Norris into la la land

    Eubanks was a great fighter

    Kalambay Collins and Johnson were world champions

    Don’t be a hater

    i dont recall the 91 squad as being a standout; it was striving to reach mediocrity

    youre imagining things

    The Jones right before he left 160 would win all those fights and he got even better at 168.

    Your memory fails you. That was a hell of an era.

    SuzieQ gave good reasons why he feels it was the strongest era. It had the lot; monster punchers, tricky boxers, cuties, savvy technicians - all for the most part in their primes and the majority of them natural full middleweights.

    But, for fun's sake, name a better one so we can all run the rule over it and see if it sucks or strives for mediocrity.

    My guess is that somebody would get to him, but I have no idea who!

    that's not public perception. the problem is you people are too impressed by names. while you're looking to the past, I have only to see what's currently there and assessing it, WITHOUT having to rely on hindsight

    The one I thought would go farther was Lamar Parks

    otherwise, it was really just a collection of so - so current and former titlists
