    The MW Division from 1989-1994 is a dream division, the best MW Era by far, just a pity more didnt square off

    Roy Jones
    Hopkins
    Toney
    Eubanks
    Benn
    McCallum
    Nunn
    McClellan
    Michael Watson
    Barkley
    Duran
    Leonard (168 )
    Hearns (168 )
    Collins
    Kalambay
    Jullian Jackson

    As it was it gave us some of the best contests ever during this period

    A hell of a division at time, and should have produced a lot more great matchups than it did. Nice post.

    Actually i wanted to add in a good deal more but i stuck to the 12 man limit like a good little poster!

    But imagine these guys being added-

    Mayweather, Corrales, Casamayor, Rosario, Camacho, Montgomerry, Ross, McLarnin, Tendler, Dejesus, Napoles, Pryor, Arguello, Brown,

    Now that is THE DIVISION.
