    If your talking longevity then yes but any other criteria then no.

    If it's the best boxers of the past 20 years then yes, you were right to include Hopkins.
    Not the best. No. But on the list he should be.

    My only gripe is HW's should always be ranked seperately.

    For any of the younger fans on here who haven't seen Pernell Whittaker fight, then i suggest you do so.
    This is the best fighter of the last 20 years.

    Hard to rank them, but I went with Chavez. His record is amazing.

    Cavez - Best resume

    Whitaker - Best defense on the list

    Oscar - Second most accomplished on the list

    Pacquaio - Most accomplished

    Floyd - Second best defense on the list

    Roy Jones Jr. - Dominance

    B-hop - Longevity

    Lennox - Doesn't belong on this list

    Holyfield - Lifetime Achievement Award

    Damn, I thought B-hop would have more votes. I went for him, he's got everything the OP asked for.

    Has to be PAC. Whitaker was the most talented though.
