Put together an all time tournamant in ONE weight class.

[actjac]

The strongest weight division ever involving eight boxers within 10 pounds of each other.

Example: Manny Pacquiao, Aaron Pryor, Henry Armstrong, etc.

 

[10000 Days]

Welterweight is too stacked.

Instead of ten pounds, let's just collapse the junior and super divisions into the original 8 (IE: SMW and LHW put together, cw and hw together, sw, JFLW and flw together Etc...)

 

[Cracky]

Hmm.. definitely welter weight..ish

I'd go with Duran, Pernell, Ray Leonard, Ray Robinson, Floyd, Chavez, Pryor, Hearns

Crazy how Pacquiao is ranked higher than Floyd. But then again its done through a voting system.

 

[KAZSoliloquy]

Bantamweight-ish would make a great tournament too. Rigondeaux, Zarate, Olivares, Jofre, Harada, Marquez, Herrera, Chucho

 

[Sunfish]

Michaelzki, calzaghe, Jones, hagler, Hopkins, hearns, toney, ward

 

[Confucamus]

Not an all timer list but a fun to watch tournament...I've only got 7 listed, left Hagler off because he'd walk through everyone's punches and ruin the fun. Can't think of an 8th slot right now, maybe force Bob Foster to drain himself with today's methods or throw a David Lemeiux or Edison Miranda kinda guy in there...

LW: Duran, Whitaker, Floyd, Chavez, Shane, Carlos Ortiz, Pac, JMM
MW: SRR, Hagler, RJJ, Monzon, Lamotta, Golovkin, B-Hops, Toney, Benvenuti


If I had to make a tournament, it would be a FlW/JFlW/SW tournament. Would have to think over who
