    Top was Jimmy Wilde, arguably the greatest Flyweight of all time. Pancho Villa then kicked his ass

    To the above 4 I would add Dolph Lundgren and Jean Claude van Damme. So we have six greats already.

    Solid claim that , but it should be pointed out Jimmy Wilde had retired two years prior to the Villa fight , Villa hit Wilde with a ******* of a shot after the bell to end the second round and Jimmy fought the remainder of the fight semi concious , Villa to his credit came into Jimmy changing room and said sorry to Liz Beth (Jimmys wife ) and informed her he was't a dirty fighter and was just acting on orders . Villa died a few years later aged roughly 23 . sad when we think of what coud have been . Regards Josey Wales

    Jimmy Wilde
    Bob Fitzimmons
    Ted "Kid" Lewis
    Diulio Loi
    Lennox Lewis

    I'd make these the top five, the fact that ATG Loi has had no mention is a sin. I'd even pick him over the Eurofighter.

    Beat Ortiz for 2/3. One of the greats of all time anywhere, never mind Europe. Amongst the 5 best to have come from our continent, unquestionably.

    A great, great champion. Lost three out of 120+, a hometown decision (avenged) and to two great fighters, Ortiz and Perkins, both avenged.

    Got out on top, winning.

    Great, great fighter, one of the greatest ever, H2H at Lightwweight i'd put him in the top 8.


    All good names on your list BTW.
