    Default 30 Years - 30 Great Fighters

    I have done something similar before, but as I am 30 and it's coming to the end of the year, I thought it might be interesting to debate

    So here are 30 Great fighters from the last 30 years (that I can think of)
    No doubt I have missed plenty – whaddyathink??

    THESE ARE NOT IN ANY ORDER

    Duran
    Lopez
    Chavez
    Whitaker
    Hagler
    Leonard
    Monzon
    Galaxy
    RJJ
    MAB
    De La Hoya
    Morales
    B-Hop
    Holyfield
    Hearns
    Arguello
    Sanchez
    Pryor
    Spinks
    Mosley
    Pedroza
    Olivares
    Holmes
    Lewis
    M.Spinks
    Nelson (Azumah)
    McCallum
    Toney
    Trinidad
    Tyson

    Current fighters Winky, Pac, Calzaghe & PBF would also be contenders

    Wouldn't have Ali as Great in last 30 years

    Tszyu - yes should have him in - but still think he is 'slightly' overrated
