    Very hard to choose between P4P and best. I have to go with SRR but Willie Pep was amazing.

    Langford.

    Closley followed by Greb, Robinson, Armstrong.

    All those fighters would make my top 20 P4P though.

    JOE CALZAGHE of course!!!!

    Nah, for me it's the predictable choice of Sugar Ray Robinson. His record is quite phenomenal. I see the cases for Langford, Greb and Armstrong, and there's a piece of me that wants to say Duran after I watch Duran-Leonard I, but I think the true choice is Robinson.

    My dark horse for the title would be Monzon. I've been watching and learning more and more about him recently. What a fighter, what a record. I say he is definitely the greatest middleweight I've ever seen, better than Robinson or Hagler at 160. I leave it up to the Classic freaks to determine whether he was better at the weight than Greb.

    And although many will shoot me down for it, I think RJJ deserves a mention, from a h2h standpoint. As I've always said, RJJ 1994-96 at 168 was the closest to an invincible fighter there has ever been.

    After Manny Pacquiao beats DLH, Hatton & Mayweather he'll wear the crown. Until then, I'll go with that Ray Robinson fella. I hear he was pretty good.

    C'mon, you knew it was coming! What'cha gonna do brother when ******* Fever runs wild ON YOU!

    Exactly. Since you can´t vote for all those four I voted for Henry since he doesn´t get enough love.
