    Nah, Greg Paterson by far, that's why i mentioned him last, honourable mention to the Nonpareil though, always enjoyed seeing him fight live.

    Those are the guys who`s career started when I was born (1979).... my all time list would look something like this......

    Muhammad Ali
    Erik Morales
    Sugar Ray Leonard
    Roberto Duran
    Julio Cesar Chavez

    (Leonard, Chavez & Duran are in no particular order & Pep, Robinson, Hearns & Whitaker could easily replace any of those 3 on another day)

    Hey Kirk -- Wlad seems out of place on your list. You've got 4 blood-n-guts warriors, and . . . . . Wlad. I'm not knocking Klitscho. His inclusion among the other 4 just seems odd.
