Which 3 Decades Were The Deepest For 160pounders?

It is magnificent!

 

Your old Marciano avatar has been getting the BORKED treatment for months on my end anyway. As has Janitor's Harry Greb comic pic', ain't seen that for ages.

 

I can't get past the 80's here. Hagler, McCallum, Kalambay and Nunn probably being the best, but Hearns, Leonard, Graham, Jackson (with Watson, Benn and Eubank starting out) etc not in any way, shape or form being bad either.

Then there's of course the 40's with a LOT of great fighters, but the greatest of those peaked at other weights and there's precious little footage of many of them.

As for the third decade... The 90's actually isn't a bad shout, especially not if you look at pure talent. Hopkins of course, and even though RJJ and Toney peaked at higher weights they looked terrific at MW as well. Add the Brits to that (Watson, Benn and Eubank) as well as the ones that peaked in the 80's (McCallum and Kalambay) but still had plenty to give in the early parts of the decade and you have quite a strong era.

If I've watched more of the 60's perhaps I would have gone with that decade, but any way you cut it the mid 80's to mid 90's had enough talent to make both decades look very good.
