    Holy, Jones Jr. and Hearns were all alternative answers for me, and I probably should have said Mayweather, although I love Arguello.

    Excellent list.

    Funny, I just addressed that in my last post, and sort of alluded to it initially. I am not set in stone with those answers.

    Fury
    Can Usyk still count? Otherwise Brieidis
    Beterviev
    Canelo
    Jermall Charlo
    Jermell Charlo
    Spence
    Taylor
    Lopez
    Berchelt (Loma?)
    Warrington (in my heart, GRJ)
    Vargas
    Inoue
    Estrada

    I don't follow sub-super flyweight divisions close enough to say.

    I just felt that Mayweather jr at 130 had power, was more aggressive and yet you could see the defense was there just balanced.

    Saunders
    Canelo
    Charlo

    And I will admit that the only one I am following below that is Inoue. Just don't have the time I used to.
