So here goes:

Ali
Holyfield
Foster
Calzaghe
Monzon
Norris
SRR
JCC
Duran
Arguello
Sanchez
Morales
Olivares
Roman
Canto
Gonzalez
Lopez

Thats.........G.R.E.B Mick ;)

---

Exactly my point. :D

---

Out of sight = Out of Mind ??? Just Imagaine future fans with "all time" some thing or another list's trying to spell Klitschko Or Calzaghe ;D. Much respect for thought out list though.Those top champs do not get enough mention today.

Cut me Mick's list is accurate, Went through lots of chips and beer Saturday and Sunday afternoons and in the seventies there were no VCRs but I had three television sets just in case and I would sometimes watch two fights at the same time but your list is on the money. CC

Thanks..
Heres CC#33 on me.
I sware I was born in the wrong era. I'm 25 I was born in 1981 but everything I like is from past eras. Music, women, fighters, cars. :(
I know someone screwed my B-Day up, I bet theres an old as man somewhere in a club trying to be 25 and playing loud rap music in his brand new car. ;D
John, good thing theres TiVo now you can just record it or the old school way is always best have several TVs going at the same time.
I haven't seen you in a long time I think the last time I saw you post was sometime in August.
Hope all is good with you and hope to see you around more often. A young kid like me could learn a lot from someone like you who lived thru moments I could only live by trying to find a video on :( or articles and books.
Thanks.

'Terrible' Terry... Well SweetPea I guess I could have/should have specified that my list was also leaned towards the following (along with what I said above) skill, accomplishments, reign as champ & opposition.
To be more clear what leads me towards Norris was his loooong stay there while Hearns just kinda jumped in and out.

Heavyweight - Muhammad Ali
Cruiserweight - Evander Holyfield
Light-Heavyweight - Ezzard Charles
Super-Middleweight - Roy Jones Jr
Middleweight - Harry Greb
Jr. Middleweight - Thomas Hearns
Welterweight - Henry Armstrong
Jr. Welterweight - Aaron Pryor
Lightweight - Roberto Duran
Jr. Lightweight - Alexis Arguello
Featherweight - Willie Pep
Jr. Featherweight - Wilfredo Gomez
Bantamweight = Carlos Zarate
Jr. Bantamweight - Khaosai Galaxy
Flyweight - Jimmy Wilde
Jr. Flyweight - Michael Carbajal
Strawweight - Ricardo Lopez

My list has a lot of the usual suspects as others...
