IT NOT TRUE THAT IT IS A CURRENT WEIGHT CLASS. THE JR MIDDLE WT WAS CREATED IN 1920 AND HAD NO CLAIMANTS UNTIL 1963.

I have a list but im not sure of the criteria for the question, so i have just gone for fighters that have held world titles at Light Middle although some of these fighters either went on to make a bigger name at higher weights or some were better at lower weights before they made the move up.
1, Sugar Ray Leonard
2, Thomas Hearns
3, Roberto Duran
4, Mike McCallum
5, Terry Norris
6, Felix Trinidad
7, Julian Jackson
8, Wilfred Benitez
Others that will end up challenging to be on this list after they retire will be Oscar De La Hoya, Winky Wright, Shane Mosley and maybe even Fernando Vargas.

Here are a few of my favorites sir:
Kochi Wajima
Felix Trinidad
Oscar De La Hoya
Maurice Hope
Shane Mosley
Terry Norris
Julian Jackson
Ayub Kalule
Note: Nino Benevenuti and Emile Griffith also fought at this weight although better known as middleweights. Also Roberto Duran, Sugar Ray Leonard, and Thomas Hearns also fought at this weight although better known at other weight classes.
