Which 10 non US middles are your picks? Obviously Monzon will feature somewhere,who else? For the purposes of this thread "American", is recognized as having been born in the States. NB Counting the Virgin Isles as US For consideration Thil Turpin Cerdan Valdez Nartinez Eubank Benn Collins Watson Downes Abraham Alvarez Sturm Golovkin Kalambay Benvenuti Sands Villemain Dauthille Tiger McCallum Graham Corro Antuofermo Dellanoit Garcia Humez Just 10 please.
Marcel Cerdan Mustafa Hamsho Dick Tiger Juan Roldan Rodrigo Valdez some off the top of my head, Not named Monzon , while I'm busy at work
In no particular order. Martinez Tiger Benvenuti McCallum GGG Kalambay Monzon Roldan Benn Valdez Honorable mentioned Arthur Abraham and Harry Simon who were both rock solid at the weight but didn't have the big name wins at 160.
I'll have ago at it now. 1.Monzon 2.Tiger 3.McCallum 4.Valdez 5.Thil 6.Cerdan 7.Golovkin 8.Alvarez 9.Turpin 10.Benvenuti I exclude Fitz because I don't think his opposition was that deep.
He became an American citizen just before he fought Dan Creedon if I remember correctly, so after he won the Middleweight title from Dempsey. The OP is about American born fighters, so it doesn't matter too much anyway.
Les Darcy is another that ought to be considered IMO. Some good wins despite his career being cut so short. The original Jack Dempsey was born in Ireland so he should probaboy be considered, but he's really tricky to figure out how to rate.
