    One of the fighters that always comes to mind for me is Randy Smith. A journeyman of sorts who fought throughout the 80's and 90's. Record of 29-33. Looking at the list of guys he fought without folding up even once is impressive.

    Your pick?

    Lovemore Ndou. 49-13 never Koed and look at the names he fought. All decisions losses - Cotto, Canelo, Kermit Cintron, Kell Brook, Junior Witter, Malignaggi, Sharmba Mitchell. He was also Kostya Tszyu's sparring partner for a very long time.

    Although he was KO'd, I still think he had a great chin. Jesse Ferguson, he beat Mercer and Buster Douglas.

    Willam Page went the distance in a 6 round fight with Julian
    Jackson. JJ said in the Ring Mag best i ever faced Q & A.
    " I remember fighting this white guy and i hit him with the
    sink and he wouldn't go down ."
    Though William Page rec showed him being stopped 8 x he seemed
    to leave quite a impression on JJ .

    I've only seen one fight of Zeijko Mavrovic, but it's enough for me to want to mention him.
