Joe Calzaghe was super middleweight and light heavyweight, though I don't mind lumping super middleweights in with middleweights. He was really good, but Bernard Hopkins is his only particularly impressive victory. I didn't even realize he retired with a 46-0 record, though. Sugar Ray Leonard was mostly a welterweight. He moved up to face Marvin Hagler late in both of their careers. (It was Hagler's last fight.) Sugar Ray Robinson was a bit of everything, so it's hard to discuss him in a single class. I have no problem calling him the greatest ever, though. His fights (that I've seen) were so damn entertaining, too. And he probably did his best work as a middleweight. One guy I forgot is Carlos Monzon. He's a tricky one. He had a lot of questionable draws that may or may not have been given to him to preserve a run of 79 fights without a loss. He also didn't fight great competition for most of his career. But to me, Marvin Hagler was the greatest middleweight ever. Harry Greb was right there.
