    Galaxy over ambers, Harold Johnson, Bivins, etc...?

    Vit Klit and Calderon on the list?

    Gotta say- it seems like you picked the order out of a hat.

    I started reading at the bottom, and stopped when I saw Rosendo Alvarez ahead of Baby Arizmendi and Matthew Saad Muhammad.

    That's a cool list, man. Just out of curiosity, where did you learn about all these guys? I know a lot of the names, but I would like to know more. From books? I've really gotten into boxing in the last 6 months or so, been trying to do my homework and such. It'd be cool if you'd give me some advice on where to start. Thanks for your time.
