    5'8", 70" reach, Lightwelter Crawford against a trained down to MW, 6'-1", 75" reach Hopkins?
    See "Monzon vs Napoles" for a similar b#tt whipping.

    TBE gets stopped by Hopkins , Tito , Young Mosley , Vargas.

    Oscar by a mile.

    In fairness, I'm pretty sure that was a catch weight bout. 157 perhaps?

    I seriously don't see how a case could be made for Mayweather here. Oscar no contest....

    If we are just considering who fought the toughest names, obviously it's Oscar.

    Of course, he lost to some of them, but that wasn't the question.

    Hasim Rahmen also fought tougher opponents than any current HW, Doesn't really mean anything though when you lose to them.

    Well , Gatti moved up to fight Hoya while Mayweather moved up to fight Gatti. And Gatti was champ coming off good wins when Mayweather fought him . Hoya fought Gatti after the Robinson beatings.
