    Out of the current middle weights champion or not who has the best win at 160. Don't care for who people think is best just who has best win. I would say Jacobs due to his scalp of Macklin who was undefeated and the way Jacobs beat him.

    Obvious title accident meant to ask who has best win at middle weight.

    Golovkin vs Lemieux/Murray
    Jacobs vs Quillin
    Saunders vs Lee/Eubank Jr.

    That kinda sums it up.

    But where and when did Jacobs beat Macklin by the way?!

    I think Jacobs's win over quillin at the moment, that's if you consider Jacobs a champion.

    I'll give the nod to Golovkin over Murray. Murray was probably the most proven middleweight at the time, had been in with Sturm and Martinez and given them very close fights. Saunders win over Lee should be considered more impressive than Jacobs over Quillin. Lee was in top form after knocking out Jackson and Korobov and drawing with Quillin, while Quillin never really proved he was for real, could handle the incoming, and was complete. GGG over Lemieux is better beyond comparison than the next best wins of Saunders and Quillin.

    I agree Jacobs win over Macklin was impressive coming off the back of his win over Golovkin, just before he woke up in bed with his socks on.

    I'll also take the guy that beat Macklin. And Lemieux, Geale, Murray, Rubio, Brook and Monroe. I'll take that guy.
