Current Lightweights

[The Son of God]

The word in heaven is that the current lightweight division is one of the best divisions in the history of boxing. Any historians out there who can name divisions that were better?

LHW in the eighties. Possiblly the best era ever in any division.

Saad Muhammad, Lopez, Johnson, Carmel, Braxton, Parlov, Mvale, Spinks etc.

Lightweights from the late teens to the mid 1920's. Lew Tendler, Johnny Dundee, Benny Leonard, Battling Nelson, Ad Wolgast, Jack
Britton, Rocky Kansas, Freddie Welsh, Ted Lewis, Johnny Kilbane. Most if not all of these guys are in the hall of fame, and rightly so. Maybe the toughest lightweight class ever.

welterweight from the 40's till the 60's was pretty good
