    Sugar Ray Leonard?
    Roy Jones Jr.?
    Hector Camacho?
    Lennox Lewis?
    Julio Cesar Chavez?
    Oscar de LaHoya?

    Who?
    Consider amateur, professional records, titles won, longevity, great fights.

    You can name whoever you think. Those were just the obvious suggestions.

    toss up between DLH and RJJ ... DLH won a middleweight title starting at 130 and RJJ won a HW title and started off as a MW.

    I guess my era is 93-present. I was born in 85.

    Id say Whitaker, Mayweather.

    Jones, 4 divisions, beat two ATG's in Toney and Hopkins in nearly there primes, went from middleweight to heavyweight, to win a belt, in the era of big Heavyweights.

    Sweet pea considering we have the same last name, Jones because he was a total freak of nature when it comes to his ability in the ring, and Floyd considering he is a complete package with decent power and superb technique.
