    In chronological order. Sugar Ray Robinson,Muhammad Ali and Roberto Duran. Plenty of others. To list them all would take an infinity,but these are my top 3.

    You have to take opposition into account because anyone can look good against a bunch of patsies.

    Ray Robinson is the obvious choice. Sweet Pea for me though :good

    I won't say the obvious, I'll go for Benny Leonard.

    Sugar Ray Robinson is the answer that comes first to my mind

    Yep. And Leonard too.

    Must say that Roy Jones was a thing to behold in his prime, as well. He might be unrivalled when it comes to making really good opponents look like simpletons.

    Ray Robinson.

    It used to be SRL but having watched more footage of Robinson over the past year he's surpassed him.
