It's pretty simple it's just which current fighters(active in the last 5 years) have faced the toughest level of competition regardless of wins or losses, i'll get it started with Mayorga - Vernon Forrest x2 Cory Spinks Felix Trinidad Oscar De La Hoya Fernando Vargas Shane Mosley Miguel Cotto Froch - Robin Reid Jean Pascal Jermain Taylor Andre Dirrell Mikkel Kessler Arthur Abraham Hopkins - Jean Pascal an old Roy Jones Kelly Pavlik Joe Calzaghe Winky Wright Antonio Tarver Jermain Taylor x2 Howard Eastman Oscar De La Hoya William Joppy Felix Trinidad Young Rjj "sugar" Andrew Council Glen Johnson
We easily forget how many great fighters Hopkins has fought over the years. You're missing Glen Johnson on there.
But that's the thing, though. It's extremely difficult to maintain an unbeaten record when you face competition like that.
Recently it has to be Froch hands down. Martinez is a close second. Also everyone in the super six tournament.
This is true, there isn't much of a margin of difference when an elite boxer is facing another elite boxer.
2 losses each to Forrest and Winky but how would Pac, DLH and Floyd have done against Forrest and Winky? They would have lost too.
