    Who would be considered the greatest left handed fighter of all time? Or if you prefer, in each division? With your pick as the single best fighter.

    Whitaker.

    There's a lot of great southpaws though - Hagler, Winky, Moorer, Saldivar, Tendler, Elorde, Camacho, Corbett III, Flowers, Lytell, potentially Everett.

    Hagler for me. Good shout out for Everett TommyV. He could've been a great one.

    Whitaker.

    All due respect to Marvin, but I don't think it's particularly close.
