    In terms of greatness. Who makes up the best team?

    (All Hall of Famers - both countries have four)

    Carlos Monzon
    Victor Galindez
    Pasqual Perez
    Nicolino Locche

    Eusebio Pedroza
    Roberto Duran
    Panama Al Brown
    Ismael Laguna

    Gun to my head my quick (and high) ranking would be:

    Duran
    Monzon
    Perez
    Locche
    Brown
    Galindez
    Pedroza
    Laguna

    Given i got 3 argentinians in the top 4, gotta go with them

    Nice to see someone rate Perez highly. Apparently I've been spelling his name wrong for years.

    *Pascual.

    Duran > Monzon
    Brown > Perez
    Laguna < Locche
    Pedroza = Galindez

    Pretty even though. Marcel rounds out a top 5 for Panama and who cracks #5 for Argentina? Martinez?

    I'd say Santos Laciar or Horacio Accavallo.

    You reckon Martinez is in equal standing to Laciar?

    One could argue that, but I don't think so. He pretty much just arrived (like Chavez Sr., a late bloomer) and has much to prove. He's well on his way, though.
