    My personal top 5 pound for pound list goes like this:

    Sugar Ray Robinson
    Muhammad Ali
    Willie Pep

    I forgot to close out with Sugar Ray Leonard and Roberto Duran in a virtual tie for fourth place.

    Think Pep actually entered the favorite against Angott, but from what I gather it was hardly an inspiring performance from the bigger man, effective as it was - just a lot of spoiling; clinching, mauling. He still won of course, but the whole affair seems pretty: Meh.
