I'm not going to narrow it down to five just yet, but here are some candidates: LaMotta over Robinson Duran over Leonard Frazier over Ali...
Mostly good choices. Some points on which I disagree: Langford is obviously a legend, but I really fail to see how he outranks Robinson, Armstrong...

Don't you always say a top three all-time fighter should hardly ever lose while in or near his prime? Monzon was unbeaten in his last 80 pro...
You're pretty desperate for fodder, there.
