The forgotten light heavyweight division of the late 80's - early 90's

It could have been a really good time in this division had the likes of Hill, Williams, Moorer and Czyz fought each other. (Czyz and Williams did fight three times, I think it was. Or maybe twice.)
Hill was the most consistent, Moorer the big puncher and Williams could do a bit of everything...underrated guy, I thought. Not flashy, but solid.

 

the 2 williams-sosa fights were crack

 

Andrew Maynard,,,,,,,

Looked like he was going to be 'the goods'.

Smartly matched, he would have won one of those Light-Heavyweight Belts.

 

As much as I love Hearns, if he can beat two of the champs at that stage of his career, the division must have been pretty ****.

I am ignorant of those fighters though.

 

Thomas Hearns, even at that point in his career, would beat the likes of a prime Bernard Hopkins, Chad Dawson, Michael Moorer (although its close)- he was a special fighter who even at the backend of his career could beat the best.

 

after corrales vs castillo 1...number 2 and 3 on my favorite fights of all time were sosa-williams 1 and 2....these are the most brutal fights ive ever seen at 175...sosa and williams decimated each other in the first fight and upped the ante some more on the second fight to the point where prince charles was taken out on a stretcher after the stoppage...no one really talks about these fights and its a shame
