    Tiger Flowers, the Georgia Deacon, was an ATG. Defeated Harry Greb twice late in Grebs career, although both contests were very close and some thought the decisions were controversial. Greb had only 1 good eye at the time.

    Whitaker, Hagler, Pac, and Saldivar are the four greatest southpaws of all time. After that it gets tricky, but I almost wanna say that Galaxy is #5.
