    LHW is the most untalked-about division in boxing. But don't let anyone fool you, it's as good as any other division.

    I think Flyweight and Bantam are talked about less.

    @George Crowcroft get in here!

    Michael Spinks vs. Yaqui Lopez

    Marvin Johnson vs. Victor Galindez

    Matthew Saad Muhammad vs. John Conteh I

    James Scott vs. Eddie Mustafa Muhammad

    Mike Rossman vs. Victor Galindez I

    Just about any fight mixing these 1970s/early 80s guys is worth seeing. So much talent, such a deep pool of contenders.

    Marvin Johnson was always in fights. Watch him vs Saad 1 and 2. Especially the first one.
    Watch him vs Stewart 1.
    Matter of fact Leslie Stewart vs Bobby Czyz was a fun fight.
    Yaqui Lopez had a fair share of good fights.
    Bobby Czyz vs Prince Charles Williams was good.
    Julian Letterough vs Johnny Gonzales you won't see a more action packed fight.
    Darius Michaleski vs Hall 1 and 2.

    Yes - every fight was a war and Saad paid for it later on.
