    I think only Pacquiao has a look in , my idea of legacy isn't keeping the "0" it's challenging yourself continually against the best,

    My top ten

    Hopkins.
    Pacquiao .
    Klitchko
    Mayweather
    Marquez
    Donaire
    Rigendaux
    Froch
    Ward

    And any one of the newer faces who try to face the best like Kovelev,Crawford or Stevenson

    Agreed but you really can't overly knock Mayweather, he is a **** but his record does speak for itself, ward did dominate Froch,Dawson (after he beat B Hop) and Kessler, you can't mention anyone he,s ducked!

    Money first and then B-Hop. The CongROIDSman isn't even in the top 10.

    I think there is significant room for argument that Klitschko is better than Hopkins from a H2H standpoint, but in terms of legacy and achievements, I gotta give it to Hopkins. Pacquiao, Roy Jones Jr, and Hopkins are head and shoulders the greatest of the modern, active boxers in my opinion.

    You should put Cotto in your list. The man is a true warrior and has fought everybody.

    How was Donaire "shot to ****"?

    He was on the best run of his career.

    He looked poor because he went up to a division that he no right to be in.

    He'll go back down to 122 and still be the second best after Rigo.
