    Of course nobody. He fought every damned body..lol Lost a lot, but he fought all the best. For that he can never be called this or that.

    From this era? No one. If DLH had won all of those fights, he would be a top 5 P4P fighter ever. Even if he had just lost to Hopkins, he would be Top 15.

    probably no one in any generation. 6 weight divisions from 130 - 160. even by old school standards (with fewer weight divisions!) he has an impressive record with belts, wins, and oppositions even if he did loose. this is why he remains the most richest and popoular draw in boxing.

    I think if Pac faces a Campbell, Hatton and have another go with JMM. PAC has the edge without regards to his amateur background. I gauge it basically with the degree of difficulty. I mean coming into these matches, you see Pac as being a slight underdog or at best 50/50.

    Based on who he fought, he has one of the strongest resumes of the fighters of any era. But not as much when based on victories.

    From present era? He lost a lot of his big matches, despite fighting everyone he could.

    tommy hearns,pernell whitaker (who punked him), roy jones jr, leonard, henry armstrong, maywether.jr,duran,mcallum,comacho even....

    theres tons man that have damn good resumes...even if some didnt win titles there still there becuase of the people they fought.

    these wieght division titles dont mean much if you dont really defend them. it's usually the long riegning champs people remember.


    also very similar to leonard and the like. becuase they are celebs already before there pro. getting title fights arnt the hard parts it's the maintaining the aura of invincability thats the tough part.
