Top-5 Strawweights (Minimumweights) of All-Time?

I've just finished the last of my timelines so I know them well enough yo appreciate how little difference there is once you get below Lopez. Massive kudos for someone trying to sort through that **** pile.

I agree with flea though it was basically a way for people to avoid the better guys at their weight.

 

When going through I stopped ranking after Lopez. I combined it with the lflw division for ranking purposes.

 

Where did you rank Lopez in the Top 10?

 

Above Chang.

 

I sure as Hell hope not Luf.

 

I actually want to see that list.

 

The top 5 were

Chang
Lopez
Carbajal
Gomzalez
Yuh.

Not at my computer so I can't remember the rest but Zapata was in there as was galaxy and that guy who unified the division early doors.

 

No he wasn't, you're getting confused.

Zapata above Yuh IMO. Better opposition beaten.

 

I suppose that's feasible.

I definitely had khaosai in my top ten.

 

What, of light flys and straws??? He was a lightweight weighing in at super fly?!?!!?!

 

You're right I was confused.

Calderon made it though :good

 

Jung-Koo Chang
Ricardo Lopez
Michael Carbajal
Humberto Gonzalez
Myung-Woo Yuh
Hilario Zapata
Saman Sorjaturong
Jorge Arce
Ivan Calderon
Luis Estaba

 

galaxy made this list

Sung-Kil Moon
Gilberto Roman
Vic Darchinyan
Masamori Takuyama
Johnny Tapia
Khaosai Galaxy
Christian Mijares
Jiro Watanabe
Hiroshi Kawashima
Marc Johnson

watanabe was the guy i was on about earlier with the unification btw.

 

Zapata above Carbajal and Gonzalez imo.Gushiken definitely better than Sorjaturong, arce, Calderon and probably Estaba too.

German Torres and Shigeo Nakajima were better than those last guys as well, but to be honest the division is a bit of a crap shoot after the top 5 or 6 standout names.A top 20 or so could be in any kind of order depending on personal preference of fighter.Lots of fighters on a similar level of accomplishment and ability.

 

Oh, yeah, didn't notice Yoko wasn't in there. He'd be in there as well, though I'd be happy with him in a 6-10 place.
