Best Fighters In Each Weightclass By Decade.

Well obviously lets start off with 2000's and try and agree on that first.

Heavyweight = Wladimir Klitschko
Cruiserweight = Johnny Nelson = Sadly
Light Heavyweight = Roy Jones Jr
Super Middleweight = Joe Calzaghe
Middleweight = B-Hop
Jr Middleweight = Winky Wright
Welterweight = Shane Mosley
Jr Welterweight = Ricky Hatton
Lightweight = Jose Luis Castillo
Super Featherweight = Acelino Freitas ?
Featherweight = Chris John or JMM ?
Super Bantamweight = Manny Pacquiao ?
Bantamweight = Hozumi Hasegawa or Rafael Marquez ?
Super Flyweight = Masmori Tokuyama or Fernando Montiel ?
Flyweight = Pongsaklek Wonjongkam
Jr Flyweight = Jorge Arce ?
Minimumweight = Ivan Calderon ?

Very tough i'll have to think more about the lower weightclasses.

No way not a chance, why cos he defended the WBO belt a few times against a few journey men?

Hey Ice I think the scope of this is too wide, you should probably start with just a few weight classes.

Saying that haha who is there to beat maybe I was a bit hasty there ICE lol.

Probably is Nelson all the other main players of the last ten years haven't done it long enough.

Maybe Bell,Haye and Mormeck run him close.

Fair list good as any i suppose except the one that really stands out is the CW like Skel said Johnny Nelson? (though I always wondered how Nelson had so many losses prior to winning the BBBofC British CW title then went undefeated)

Mormeck was better then Nelson, IMO O'Neil Bell would have beaten him as well just to name 2 of a decent size list...Longevity does not always mean the best
