    EDITED to include Canzoneri and Armstrong as they were not in the Lightweight list. Apologies to Salvador Sanchez, Eusebio Pedroza and Abe Attell.

    I'm already second guessing myself. There's some really good fighters that are left out but I'll stay with these.

    I think that featherweight is the weight I'm the least knowledgeable on. I'm gonna take my time on this one.

    Pep, Saldivar, Saddler, Canzi, Dixon, Arguello and Hank I think. I feel a c*nt leaving Sanchez out though. But the above all had superior overall careers to him despite him outstripping some of them solely at feather.
