    Good list.

    Yep. Mayweather deserves a mention at super feather. He was sensational there.

    You have Calzaghe over Jones? I could see that, i might've done it but didn't people going off on one about my love for Joe C Wales. lol

    Carbajal and Humberto Gonzalez are good shouts for light fly. How could i forget Gushiken as well.

    I suppose De Leon is also worth a mention at cruiser, but nothing comes close to the Real Deal.

    Have to go with Chavez over Locche for me at light welter. I won't go back as far as Kid Berg.

    Yeah, I think it´s possible because Jones had only 7 fights at SMW....his win over Toney is great but as far as SMW goes, Calzaghe is greater in my opinion.....
