    He has a few good ones but i would say KO3 of unified Champ Indongo to become the first to unify 4 titles since Hopkins.

    In my opinion, Felix Diaz. He deserves little credit for beating up an undersized midget, if he gets full credit for that, then Canelo gets full credit for the Khan win, and GGG gets full credit for the Brook win. Postol is second, and let's be honest, his best win, was due to a freak accident, and against a guy who he happened to be a stylistic nightmare for, Matty doesn't do well with counter punchers, that's why he struggled with Danny, Zab and Devon.

    Erm, probably Postol but I guess that depends how he looks on his return (not great so far!). Felix Diaz might turn out to be a good one in the future. He doesn't really have any kind of defining win career wise but he has plenty of time for that

    Just say...indongo
    The fact that you have to bring up that he unified the belts, first since Hopkins... shows me you're trying to convince yourself that indongo was any good at all

    I think his dominant performances and unification of the 140 division places him high on many p4p rankings. His resume isn't as deep as it could be but he's got a long career ahead of him

    I mean yeah technically in terms of the achievement on paper that's nice, but realistically Indongo was his worst scalp in years. The last 8 guys Crawford beat would probably all beat Indongo (nine victories ago was Ricky Burns, who fought and lost to Indongo three years after he lost to Crawford, by which time he was shot and receiving gifts over guys like Kyril Relikh. Do I believe for certain that Ricky Burns of 2014 loses to Julius Indongo? Nope...)

    On pure talent probably Díaz or Gamboa. On h2h effectiveness (due to intangibles/size/what have you, things other than natural athletic talent or learned technical boxing skill) you could make a case for Beltrán, Postol and Molina being in the mix.
