    I find it very difficult to separate Joe Gans and Benny Leonard at the top of the lightweight division's all-time rankings. At the very least Gans is ranked #2.
    He's top 10, perhaps top 5, in the pound-for-pound stakes. He's a worthy candidate for the p4p GOAT.

    I have him at number 1 at Lightweight, and can't see him being any lower than #3.
    I have him at number 8 P4P, and can't see him being any lower than #10.
