    Japan

    Mexico

    Pretty hard question, he's my shot at it.

    USA - Ali after SRR

    Japan - Ishimatsu after fighting Harada

    Mexico - JMM/Morales/Barrera after Chavez

    Argentina - Nicolino Locche/ Martinez after Monzon

    Cuba - Stevenson after Napoles

    South Africa - Coetzee after Corrie Sanders

    The Japan one was toughest for me; I was going back and forth between Ebihara and Watanabe......

    I'd go with Ebihara there.Both were very gifted, but Ebihara fought much better competion and has the better wins.

    Watanabe was also a bit of a playboy waste of talent, which should count against him even if-like i do-you really rate him at his peak.

    Ohba should probably be in the mix too.

    Have to admit never seeing him fight. I should, seeing as he's like the Japanese Sal Sanchez.

    What about Ghana, **** Tiger, Quartey, or Nelson? I guess we have to determine who is first, first.
