    Proved how great Monzon was. And Rodrigo Valdez actually, he beat Briscoe easier than Monzon and Hagler.

    Didn't Bennie fight Monzon twice ? That would be enough for anyone I would thought George.

    Yeah, drew with him for one as well, and hurt him in the rematch.

    Monzon shut him out in that rematch tho

    The guys whilst virtually shot fought a prime Marvin Hagler! And was competitive. Beast, underrated.

    Don't know if he fits your ''entertainer'' criteria but I certainly find the iron-jawed, lead-fisted, doobie smoking beach bum Jose ''Maestrito'' Luis Lopez entertaining. His chin was unreal and he could punch holes in walls. He'd beat all the current champs at 147 IMO

    Did you know there were talks at an advanced stage to match Fletcher with Tony Sibson? Can you imagine what a fight that would have been ?

    Ho. Ly. ****... that would've been bless.

    Sibson himself could qualify for a list like this.

    Ha ha ! Yeah, it's a tragedy it never happened. When he was really at it Tony was a wildly exciting Fighter.
