    There are two ways to do it. Base the fighters on accomplishments, or talent.

    Accomplishments:

    1. Manny Pacquiao
    2. Floyd Mayweather
    3. Bernard Hopkins
    4. Oscar De la Hoya
    5. Joe Calzaghe

    Bernard and Floyd are almost inter-changeable at the 2 spot.


    On talent.

    1. Floyd Mayweather
    2. Oscar De la Hoya
    3. Manny Pacquiao
    4. Joe Calzaghe
    5. Bernard Hopkins

    What makes Hopkins so great is that despite the fact that he lacks the natural talents of the other 4 fighters, he has far and away the best mental approach of anyone on the list. Bernard possesses one of the greatest minds boxing has ever seen.

    It has to be Hopkins the man dominated fighters mentally and physically,in his prime he rarely lost a round,and his 20 title defenses to break Monzons record is greater than anything that the rest of these guys have done,not to metion prime for prime if they were all the same weights he'd beat the **** out of them.
    And im sorry Oscar cant get a free pass for his loses,and he did lose to Tito you can run in the last half the fight and expect a decsion,he lost to Sturm clearly,i think he lost that fight to Quartey,even though he beat Vargas and was shot and he still dominated ODH early in the fight.
    Pac clearly lost to Morales and JMM,he beat a shot ODH,ducked a shot Mosely,beat a overrated Cotto,again a shot 1 dememtional and overrated Hatton,and no he's about to beat up slow past it cheater,what is ATG about any of this?
    Mayweather 1 can definatively say about him as he runs his mouth more than he fights,he lost to Castillo,a past it ODH should have been a draw cheated on weight to beat a smaller JMM,and he's running from Pac which makes him look like a coward,and Joe doesent even deserve to be mentioned but he beat Hopkins and none of these guys can even beat a past it Hopkins.Heres a real list for ya!

    1.Hopkins
    2.Roy Jones
    3.Trinidad
    4.Morrales
    5.Pac
    6.Barrera
    7.Floyd
    8.JMM
    9.ODH
    10.P.Williams/Martinez (and their climbing making real fights)

    you are so obviously Mexican and therefore biased as all hell, how does a guy who came up short in almost every big fight he ever had and who had no right hand qualify as better than one who has won almost every big fight he was ever in?
