    Now you've opened a can-of-worms Sally!!



    My two bob's worth is Rose & Fenech - OK, so I'm a bloody fence sitter.


    (I struggle qualifying Vic & Kostya because they became Aussies late in boxing terms)

    I'd say Rose closely followed by Fenech then Tszyu.

    I'll tell you one thing about Tony ash. He had the balls to fight the best unlike that son of his you idolise so much.

    Not far from true either I'd reckon Ash.

    There's a few others from way back when who'd also have more belts than a menswear shop.

    Based on quality of opponents, if it's not Rose, It's Famechon.
