Nice reference to PWillisTheMan's list a few pages back. I think, going in reverse order on the lists, that we've left off on a MW rating for Jack Dillon. I've thought a lot about the fighters in different weight classes, as well. Just a quick scanning of the list, I see examples of Mugabi @ MW, Czyz @ MW, Kronk's John David Jackson @ JMW, Pettway @ WW, Sergio @ WW, a cool Emile Griffith request for JMW, etc...

I always loved the changes in weights and I am sure previous versions have had fighters ranked in some of these requested weights, like I can remember using a Luisito Espinosa @ BW, Fenech @ BW, Paez @ FW, Freddie Pendleton @ LW, Junior Jones @ BW and so on. I can actually remember a lot of these fighters and weights way back during the Lance Haffner TKO Boxing days, all the way up through TitleFight 2001 (I believe). Fighters I played a lot were Louie "Sharpshooter" Espinoza @ FW, Terrance Alli and Aaron Pryor @ LW, and I can remember a Bramble JWW rating (right around the Oba Carr fight date).

For years I've been using John Dewey's tremendous ratings of a lot of fighter ratings for alternate weight classes, not in the offical database, and I thank him for that. It's always good to get different viewpoints and perception of fighters. Looking forward to THROWBACK MONDAYS, IceTea, I think its a great idea.
