    His fight with Arguello, the first Antonio Gomez fight and the Kuniaki Shibata fight are all out there. There may be others as well, but that's all I've seen...

    Very tough this one, but I'll give it a go...

    McCallum
    Moore
    Johnson
    Toney
    Hopkins
    Mayweather
    Duran
    Barrera
    Chavez
    Pea

    Something like that. I've gone mostly for fighters that didn't have oustanding physical attributes. Pea, Duran and PBF are the exceptions, but they are too good to be excluded anyhow.

    :lol:

    There's not a name that i could argue is out of place in that list. Sure there are plenty of others, but you could debate solidly for any of your lot deserving inclusion.
