    They have to be active and never have tasted gold. If you had the ability to leave a magic wand and create the perfect storm that allows them to defy the odds and win the gold that eluded them for their entire career - Who eould you choose? For me the answer is easy. John Molina Jr. He's given then fans so many good fights over the years, faced the who's who but never could get the job done. Hard to think of someone more "deserving" than him. Interested in seeing the answers for this one.

    Martin murray.

    Close fight with sturm.

    Was robbed against Martinez in Argentina to prevent riots.

    Took a beating against ggg like a real man.

    Robbed against Abraham.

    BJS pulled out of a fight with him twice.

    Is wbc no.1 - would love to see him beat canelo. Cherry pick gone wrong

    And he’s a great guy, met him in Belfast having a drink at fury fight.

    That's a good shout. Not a fan of his style especially in recent years but hes one of the most hard done by guys in the game today.

    Tom Loeffler. I'd be over the moon if he could unify the LHW division.

    Either him or Max Golovkin.

    Groves isn`t as good as GGG but he`s a hard puncher, GGG has more to his game than just hard punching, he would have out boxed Froch better than Groves try to when losing by KO to Froch, no way could Froch KO GGG but I feel Froch`s chin could have taken GGG`s shots also, he would have been out jabbed completely.

    Martin Murray is a good shout - He doesn't get the credit he deserves after getting robbed against Sergio Martinez in Argentina, it was an outstanding performance against one of the top 3 P4P fighters at that time, Martinez had just had the best performance of his career against Chavez Jr.

    Don't really have a currently active pick. Retired having never won gold is a easy Micky Ward & Emanuel Augustus(Burton.)

    and I don't like Dereck Chisora, put his life should be made into a movie if he managed to win a world title. That would be some ending to his crazy career.

    I would love to have seen Antonio Margarito get the cance he fully deserved against Floyd. Sadly Floyds cojones weren't up to the task. So to get rid of him they railroaded him based on the blatant lies of a POS. I truly believe he would have walked Floyd down & beat the tar out of him like he did Cotto
    He's a great guy & a REAL FIGHTER !!!!!!!!!
