Shawn Porter has the best resume at 147

He lost the majority of fights that matter

 

Didn’t he lose pretty much all these fights?
It’s like saying Khans got the best resume because he’s fought Canelo, Crawford and Garcia

 

Should be faced the better opposition and not best resume. A good boxing resume is based of wins and not who you faced. As mention earlier, going by your standard Amir Khan has one of the best resume.

 

There's tons of fighters in history who have "great resumes" because they weren't good enough. The promoters give them the elite boxers all the time because they know they'll lose most times.

 

But Spence beat up two of the people on his resume (one he stopped, the other he gave the most lopsided loss of their career), plus Spence actually beat him. Also, Porter lost to the 3 best people that he fought, has a draw (could've been a loss) to Julio Diaz to go along with the razor's edge win against Ugas. It's not just resume, it's actually winning the big ones. Porter's best win is Devon Alexander, and that win doesn't look so great in hindsight. He falls short.

 

This is why I don't understand those who criticise Canelo.

Just look at the list of names he's fought.

 

Not in boxing

Might as well chuck Peter Buckley in the mix if its judged this way

 

Weight drained but he had made weight every single time prior to their fight. He also made the WW limit in his last fight (albeit he is currently a shell). As for Danny, Danny isn't that aged or declined, he's given a good accounting of himself against everyone except Errol (including Porter) however if you wanna take that position, Errol was coming back from a life threatening accident, can he not be given a pardon? As for the Spence fight, I know no one that had 8 rounds for Porter, that's quite insane. I had it 116-111 (let's not forget the knockdown) for Spence. Porter has always been competitive (that's his modus operandi), but he's consistently shown he can't get over that hurdle.
