    My choice is lightweight for the reasons above.

    Super-middle.

    Long rich history with past champs like Calzaghe, Otke and now Froch. Contenders like Manfredo and Byron Mitchell, who can argue with that?

    Sorry seriously I'd say lightweight but few people beat me to it so thought would just come out with some bollocks instead.

    I think light heavyweight might be third toss up between that and middle with welter and lightweight being 1 and 2.

    In my top five four of them are top 25
    1. Ezzard Charles
    2. Archie Moore
    3. Sam Langford
    4. Gene Tunney
    5. Michael Spinks

    I have the top three all top ten p4p (Charles at 5, Langford at 3 and Moore at 10) plus this was around Fitz natural weight another top 20 and many of Grebs biggest wins are here although I guess he represents middleweight a little more.

    Lightweight has always been my favourite division and historically its just so strong.
