What three best lightweights who fought at the same time? My trio I pick,were Ike Williams, Beau Jack, and Bobcat Bob Montgomery...I saw each one fighting each other in the 1940s..Each bout was a WAR...Those days fighters were forced to abide by the will of the public...They had to fight the BEST, thus the cream of the top, was the result...And your top three at one time.?
My thread should have asked the best 3 lightweight opponents of OUR times,who fought each other...Other than that... Benny Leonard Lew Tendler Charley White
Ahh, sorry BB didnt quite get you there. I'm only a whipper snapper so I would probably say Marquez, Pacquiao and Diaz
