    If Benny Leonard didn't sucker punch Jack Britton the result likely would have been Leonard KO 13, and the welterweight championship. Ad that win to the rest of his resume. It would be very hard to beat. There is also his last fight with McLarnin that he lost.
    Someone who could beat it is Ray Leonard. Had he won the decision over Duran in their first fight. Beaten Hearns in their second fight. Than Noris and Camacho. I think the gaps between 82-84 and 84-87 hurt Ray Leonard's resume status.

    Under this criteria Jake LaMotta would have six wins over Sugar Ray Robinson, wouldn't he?

    Beating the GOAT six times basically trumps everyone else I would say.
