    Mikey Garcia or Danny Garcia?

    John Henry Lewis or Lennox Lewis?

    Manuel Ortiz or Carlos Ortiz?

    And I'm not too familiar with the bottom 2, so will pick Puerto Rican slickness.

    Mikey, Lennox and Manuel. The first clear, the other two close.

    For further context, I'd order these 6 as follows:

    1. Manuel Ortiz - my #3 BW of all time, though I think reasonable arguments exist for him being 1 or 2.
    2. Lennox Lewis - my #4 all time HW, though I can see him at #3.
    3. Carlos Ortiz - my #6 all time LW. Also won a title at LWW.
    4. JHL - my #4 all time LHW, though I could also see him at 5 or 6.



    5. Mikey Garcia
    6. Danny Garcia

    I'd have no problem with any and all of the possible permutations when ordering the top 4, they're all that close, imo.

    Huge gap between the top 4 and bottom 2.
