    Good list...

    As for HW's, I'd put Joe Louis over Lennox Lewis.

    Ricardo Lopez is a worthy name here, too.

    Carlos Monzon applies more than a little bit here, too.

    Most great Mexicans were/are boxer-punchers.

    A nation of bad-asses.

    Joe Louis looks like the glaring omission and, being a big Finito fan, I'd find a spot for him too.

    Alexis Arguello, Eder Jofre, and Mike McCallum should be considered.

    I have to agree that Louis, MMH and Finito should be high on this list as well as a few others should be on it.
