According to the Ring Magazine Rankings for each year were;
1990 - Julio Cesar Chavez
1991 - Julio Cesar Chavez
1992 - Julio Cesar Chavez
1993 - Pernell Whittaker
1994 - Pernell Whittaker
1995 - Pernell Whittaker
1996 - Roy Jones Jr
1997 - Oscar De La Hoya
1998 - Oscar De La Hoya
1999 - Roy Jones jr.
I think a lot of people will be scratching their heads that De La Hoya was ever ranked as the no. 1 pound for pound fighter in the world.
Who do you think was the fighter of the 90’s?
If I had to bet my mortgage on one fighter to win by (a fair) decision it would be Whittaker but he sure was in some snoozers.
