    I’m not an expert on the fly weights so I wouldn’t say this is the greatest list but there’s my 20 Cents.

    My knowledge at this weight is very limited to put it mildly.

    Don't! I feel like I've kicked all common sense over the hedge like a Hermes parcel. He'll get in anyway, the shortarse swine.

    Leaving Wilde off the Flyweight list would be like leaving Joe Louis off the Heavyweight list.

    Masao Oba (1966-1973)
    Pone Kingpetch (1954-1966)
    Chartchai Chionoi (1959-1975)
    Pancho Villa (1919-1925)
    Midget Wolgast (1925-1940)
    Sot Chitalada (1983-1992)
    Miguel Canto (1969-1982)

    It pained me not to have Wilde but I had to give Charty and Oba a fighting chance. I always preferred Canto to Wilde anyways.
