    Small guys in the house. The stats next to the fighters name is their record fighting at that weight. The records next to ''notable wins'' is the record of that fighter at the time of the fight. This is my first draft, did i omit any big names?

    1.Humberto Gonzalez 41(30KO)-3
    Notable Wins: Micheal Carbajal[twice](27-0-0),Jung Koo Chang(37-1),Melchor Cob Castro(37-3-4)

    2.Michael Carbajal 31(20KO)-4
    Notable Wins:Humberto Gonzalez(36-1), Melchor Cob Castro(46-4-4), Jorge Arce(20-2-1)

    3.Myung-Woo Yuh 36(14KO)-1
    Notable Wins:Leo Gamez[twice](20-0)

    4.Yoko Gushiken 18(12KO)-1
    Notable Wins:Martin Vargas(60-5-3),Alfonso Lopez(28-5)

    5.Saman Sorjaturong 43(33KO)-4-1
    Notable Wins:Humberto Gonzalez(43-2),Antonio Perez(41-6-4)

    6.Jung Koo Chang 35(16KO)-2
    Notable Wins:Hilario Zapata(20-2), Sot Chitalada(4-0)

    7.Hilario Zapata15(5KO)-2
    Notable Wins:Jung-Koo Chang(18-0)

    8.Ulises Solis 25(18KO)-1
    Notable Wins: Jose antonio Aguirre(34-5-1),

    9.Luis Estaba 24(18KO)-4
    Notable Wins: Rodolfo Rodriguez(24-0-1), Franco Udella(27-3)

    10.Ivan Calderon 18(3KO)
    Notable Wins: Hugo Fidel Cazares[twice](26-4-1)

    Calderon really seems weird to have in this list, but i didn't have anyone else that came up to mind.

    You could argue Arce over Calderon...Solid list from what I can see on the surface..not a division Im very familiar with to be honest.

    Both Carbajal and Gonzalez are so overrated. A prime Chang was a level ahead of either of them, and I'd also rank Zapata higher. Guys like Arce, Alvarez, Gushiken, Yuh, etc probably all belong in the same vicinity. Lopez was better as well by a fair distance.

    Sorjaturong at #4? For what? Beating the overrated Gonzalez when past his prime? Guy like German Torres and Muangchaio Kittikasem were better IMO. Calderon doesn't belong in the top 10 either, by a fair distance.

    Jimmy Wilde is a long way ahead of #2 Ricardo Lopez IMO.

    Wilde - Flyweight
    Lopez - Minimum weight.

    Im sticking mainly to 108. I will take a look at

    Arce
    German Torres
    Muangchaio Kittikasem

    Hit you back after i looked them up.

    Thx for the input on a division not a lot of people follow.

    Lopez fought at 108, and Wilde fought at 108 tops.
