Have to think hard about the rest

 

I'd maybe say Usyk for Crusierweight.

 

Forget his weight because I’m dumb but Orlando Canizales - Gene Fullmer had quick feet, watch how fast he gets in vs Robinson.

 

Good list. I'd say that Sugar Ray Leonard takes Light-Middleweight too.

 

Have you checked out Orlando Canizales? The feet on that fella, I think there’d be a way to sneak Loma in here somewhere too Stevie… what say you?

 

Good question,Journeyman. Quite thought provoking.

 

This one is on the dimmer side, what do you think of Gene Fullmer? Not that he did anything bedazzling and whipped up a million secret angles for a sneaky punch but look how fast he gets inside on Robinson… quick, smart feet for the job. Watch a round or two… around 6:25-ish he gets in so fast with a hook to the body.

@Seamus what say you on Gene? ^^^^^^ you’re the 160lber fan round these parts.

Hey @roughdiamond
what was Harada’s best weight? I don’t remember, I know he beat Jofre… I just remember how quick he was, especially behind his jab, not enough short guys realise it’s better to at least come behind something then to just stand there looking for a spot to get in…

 

I see what you mean. Never thought about Gene before.

 

@dmt Pep might be a good place to start at featherweight. Benny Leonard comes to mind at 135.

 

Good points. Pep and Benny are great candidates. Its been so long since i have seen prime Benitez but i am wondering if he could be a candidate for 140.

 

Where's Richard Dunn?

 

His technical best was at Bantam (after the first Medel bout), but physically he was a monster at Fly, especially in the first Kingpetch bout. Personally I think his best performance is the 1st Jofre bout. He actually made Jofre look like a plodder at points imo. ATG win. The second Medel bout really showcases his in and out footwork though.

 

Wilfred was often more about luring people to the ropes than outspeeding them across the canvas. If Camacho didn't fall a fraction short of ATG i would have named him at 130. Manny Pac would make it in a division somewhere, you'd think. Maybe more than one division for some. Wolgast at the bottom end too.
