    Trimming it down to 5 is really tough. Any 5 from these lot would be acceptable in most peoples eyes I believe:


    Bernard Hopkins
    Roy Jones
    Joe Calzaghe
    Floyd Mayweather
    Lennox Lewis
    Evander Holyfield
    Manny Pacquiao
    Ricardo Lopez

    1. Floyd
    2. Hopkins
    3. Lewis
    4. RJJ
    5. Pac

    Pac still has the potential to carve out career definining victories and thus has the potential to move up on my list. A win over Hatton (although the fight is looking unlikely to happen now) and a titlist at 147 would in all probabliity move him up to first on my list.
