    Seeing as though he hasn't been mentioned..... Jack Dillon must have been a very big MW,. he was pretty big for a LHW... can't vouch for his power or strength as he ain't on film, but I've never heard that he wasn't..... size wise a match for any.

    Nahh he's too ugly to be the champ.......... and I don't think they had colour photographs back then...... maybe Mick King ??...... Tommy Uren ??... Dave Smith ??,, nah he's a Kiwi------------Man. this is a tough one.

    Tony Thornton & Merqui Sosa weren't mentioned yet .
    McClellan and Langford weren't mentioned until recently and even then only 1ce .
    Thornton had Toney clinching and retreating and Collins retreating and won a decision vs Merqui Sosa , I wonder how it looked like .
