    I dont know about that mate...The guy pretty much never lost at 147 in his prime.

    Whether not he appeared lazy or tedious to watch...He just was straight up effective.

    Could someone do 154 for me? Im from the 2000 era so mine would look like

    1 - Trinidad
    2 - Oscar de la Hoya
    3 - Fernando Vargas
    4 - Winky Wright
    5 - Forrest??

    Thats tough for me.... if i were to redo it i would have it

    1 - Trinidad
    2 - Winky Wright
    3 - Oscar
    4 - Vargas
    5 - Ike

    But i really do think vargas would beat winky 6 out of 10 times.... and think that vargas could beat oscar quite a few times out of 10.... idk...

    anyways, this list is obviously from 2000 till now... i know nothing of the 154lb division from before then...

    Junior Bantamweight
    1. Johnny Tapia
    2. Jiro Watanabe
    3. Sung-Kil Moon
    4. Nana Konadu
    5. Gilberto Roman

    Super Bantamweight
    1. Wilfredo Gomez
    2. Lupe Pintor
    3. Jeff Fenech
    4. Erik Morales
    5. Marco Antonio Barrera

    I have nothing for 140 and 154, there are too many ways to interpret the question for those weight classes.

    Good lists. I'd probably switch Roman and Konadu around myself. Other than that I'm inclined to agree with you. I'm tempted to put Fenech at 2 for 122, but can't argue with Lupe.

    Laciar might also be worthy of a spot at 115. I had his first fight with Roman a draw and obviously had him taking the second. At his best at the weight I think he was as good as Roman.

    Even though I don't neccessarily disagree about Jofre being top bantam there isn't much film about of him apart from the Harada fights and the Medel fight.
    He lost the 2 Harada fights so I think maybe Harada should be above him.
    I'd go with Olivares at no.1.
