    All three picked so i could form my own opinion of them

    Carlos Monzon- ive only ever saw v Benvenuti and clips of Napoles

    Jersey Joe Walcott- To see what this guy was like as a younger fighter, watch the progression kinda thing

    My timeframe for following boxing was 1975-1985 so my fighters come from that era:

    1. Pipino Cuevas
    2. Carlos Palomino
    3. Salvador Sanchez
    4. Wilfred Benitez
    5. Victor Galindez

    As it is, I have many fights from the above fighters already although not too much from Victor.

    Langford, Pep, Driscoll, Jofre, Locche, Gans, Leonard, Greb, Fitz, Williams, Burley and most of the obvious ones seem to have been taken, so I'm going for:-

    - Dave Sands (looks like a superb boxer-puncher from what I've seen)
    - Tippy Larkin
    - Duilio Loi
    - Freddie Dawson
    - Baby Arizmendi
