Luis Firpo
Oscar Bonavena

Víctor Galíndez
Jorge Ahumada
Carlos Monzón
Eduardo Lausse
Rafael Merentino
Hugo Corro

Thanks, tommygunn!:thumbsup:

As you can read, they are all retired; at present, Carlos Baldomir is a very good fighter; too, the WBO flyweight champion Omar Narvaez

I like Monzón, Firpo, Bonavena in that order. Monzón was a great champion (my uncles favorite fighter). Firpo took part in one of the greatest fights of all time. My grandfather used to talk about it when he refered to "back in the day". Bonavena fought good competative fights against some of the greatest heavyweight champions of all time.
