    1960s: Vicente Saldivar who beat Sugar Ramos in 1964

    1970s: Alexis Arguello who beat Olivares in 1974

    1980s: Barry McGuigan who beat Pedroza in 1985

    1990s: Naseem Hamed who beat Kelley in 1997

    2000s: Erik Morales who beat In-Jin Chi in 2001

    These aren't who I think are the best Featherweights through the decades, just my favourite.

    How would you rank them all in a Head To Head 'Contender' style competition over 12 rounds in terms of styles making fights and who was the most complete as a featherweight?

    Also..........

    How do they all fair against the current crop including Chris John, Steven Luevano, Jorge Solis and Yuriorkis Gamboa??

    Even against the "Black and White" era Featherweights such as Henry Armstrong, Willie Pep, Jackie Wilson and Freddie Miller??
