Some fighters are known for their dominance in one specific weight class, but there are others who carry their weight up and down with similar effectiveness. With that said, what weight class do you associate with the following fighters: Sam Langford Henry Armstrong Tony Canzoneri Barney Ross Alexis Arguello Julio Cesar Chavez Manny Pacquiao
Sam Langford- LHW, was supposed to have been his best weight Henry Armstrong- LW, although he fought and accomplished more as a WW, he was more natural at LW, and just seems to matchup better over history at the lower weights Tony Canzoneri- Probably LW as well Barney Ross- See above, either LW or 140 Alexis Arguello- 130 was his best weight Julio Cesar Chavez- 135 was his best, but he didn't fight there long, so 140 Manny Pacquiao- Probably his current class to be honest, that or FW.
Sam Langford Immediatly I think heavyweight, though I think he was more of a light heavyweight. Henry Armstrong Lightweight Tony Canzoneri Lightweight Barney Ross Welter Alexis Arguello Featherweight Julio Cesar Chavez Light welterweight Manny Pacquiao Super Featherweight
Sam Langford - Heavyweight Henry Armstrong - Welterweight Tony Canzoneri - Lightweight Barney Ross - Welterweight Alexis Arguello - Super Featherweight Julio Cesar Chavez - Jr. Welterweight Manny Pacquiao - Super Featherweight
Im not gunna do this as 'what their best fighting weight was', more of an accomplishment at the weight thing. Sam Langford - not sure, but i think LHW Henry Armstrong- WW, not his natural weight imo, but the record speaks for itself. Tony Canzoneri- maybe LW, but i always thought 140 was his best. Barney Ross- not a big WW, but one of the best imo Alexis Arguello- 130 Julio Cesar Chavez- 135 was where i think we saw his very best, but greatness- 140 and 130 Manny Pacquiao- his best was 122 imo, but he has proved immense everywhere
