Name your top 5 best junior middleweights in history. Surprise question: Has anybody ever wondered what SRR would've accomplished at this weight?
#1. Tommy Hearns #2. Mike McCallum #3. Wilfred Benitez #4. Winky Wright That'd be my top four, for sure. Tito, ODLH, Vargas, Vazquez and maybe Lara could push it for fifth. The reasoning for Lara, is because I (like most) had him winning vs Hurd, Canelo & Williams. As for SRR, he'd smash everything like he did at 147 & 160. Actually, 154 probably would've amazing for the pre retirement Robi. I guess you could add Griffith, Rodriguez and some others if you're making it a H2H list.
I like that list @George Crowcroft , I do think that Hearns and McCallum deserve the 1a and 1b spot. Also, you didn't mention Terry Norris which is a shocker. Some people rate him much higher than I do.
1) Hearns 2) McCallum 3) Benitez 4) Julian Jackson 5a) Felix Trinidad 5b) Terry Norris For all his flaws, Norris would outbox Lara, and blast out Hurd. And, Jackson destroyed Norris.
If the weight class was around then, Robinson would most likely be the greatest Super Welterweight of all time
Seems to be no argument having Hearns no 1 at 154. Does this mean we can stop hearing the nonsense about him being better at 147?
1. Terry Norris 2. Felix Trinidad 3. Thomas Hearns 4. Julian Jackson 5. Mike McCallum Just my top 5 personal favorites. Funny thing is I’d actually pick everyone on the list to beat Norris
