    i agree a 100%. i just voted for hopkins because he hasn't taken a damaging punch (unless you count low-blows) since he fought mercado. that was 15 years ago!!!! that speaks for itself.

    Currently Mayweather.... I don't think it is even close... The man is a true all time defensive great, like him or hate him.

    Abraham and Marquez? Am I missing something here? Abraham has good defense because he holds his hands high? Marquez has good defense because he's a good counter-puncher?

    Mayweather by a long shot.

    Floyd by a distance. He's fast and sleek. I guess it goes with his character.

    Where was the poll option for Margarito? He is far more skilled defensively than any of those guys.
