    Benny Leonard was very good! Jack Johnson was an inovator applying defense and offense. Ofcourse Willie Pep must be mentioned. Willie Pastrano had excellant movement for defensive purposes. Archie Moore was very good also in the mid point of his career as he got older he was more stationary. Salvatore Sanchez was very complete! Ray

    Barney Ross and Willy Pep were master class boxers.
    Do not let success go to your head and do not let failure get to your heart.

    Agreed.

    Pep
    Burley
    Benitez
    Whitaker round out my top 5

    Jofre and Gans who were both as complete as they come could easy be subbed in. Langford also for his early use of the shoulder no doubt as a result of fighting people at times twice his size.
