The weight where I have the most trouble naming 10, 15, or 20 fighters that are the best of that class is light heavyweight.

Consider everybody who did most of their work in that weight range and where do you start?

Who should be ranked higher Jem Mace or Bob Foster?

Lightweight. Welterweight are second but not even close in my opinion.

Yep, lightweight, and not coincidentally it's my favourite division.
