Henry Armstrong (USA) 1931-1950 58-12-4 (46) WBA Champion 1939
Ralph Hurtado (PAN) 1933-1950 34-32-4 (11) No Titles Highest Rank: 33
Aldo Spoldi (ITA) 1930-1950 37-22-8 (19) EBU Champ Highest Rank: 2
Laurie Stevens (SAF) 1932-1950 47-23-1 (23) WBA Champion 1943 Highest Rank: 3
Lefty Satan Flynn (JAM) 1931-1950 42-23-4 (20) WBA Champion 1945 Highest Rank: 1
George Daly (UK) 1930-1950 37-30-7 (9) No Titles Highest Rank: 33
Vic Patrick (AUS) 1940-1950 35-11-2 (24) WBA Champion 1947 Highest Rank: 2
Willie Joyce (USA) 1937-1950 33-21-5 (14) USBA Champion Highest Rank: 8
Harry Hurst (CAN) 1939-1950 23-19-3 (10) No Titles Highest Rank: 17

Outlook: Williams was an active Champion, successfully defending his title four times during the year, and also extended his winning streak to 14 in his last 14 bouts. Brown remains as a top title threat, and there is also, lurking outside the top 10, Cuban Orlando Zulueta who is poised to challenge for a regional title (likely the LABF one but also possibly the NABF currently held by Brown). Of those in the top 10 contender spots, Montgomery, Costantino, Angott and Gent are all on the downside of their respective careers. Along with Zulueta, Americans Jimmy Carter and Phil Kim are to be considered as future top 10 contenders. Gonsalves, who is off to an excellent 14-0 start to his career, is the best of the current crop of prospects. Also, straddling the LW and WW ranks, is Italian Diulio Loi, a “13” ranked fighter in the now defunct JWW division. Belize Ludwig Lightburn, a “9,” is the highest rated among the seven newcomers.
