    Roy Jones.

    Toney had an exceptional resume between 160-168 also.

    Calzaghe 3rd for longevity and consistancy.

    Take Jones out and it becomes interesting but its a bit lopsided with him there.

    Roy all day! I would probably put Toney 2nd aswell, and considering what Jones did to him when they were prime for prime, it aint even close!!

    1. Calzaghe, for dominating the division for years and cleaned it out (those who wanted to fight him)
    2. Jones, for looking best at 168, but he moved up quick (if he stayed bit longer after he on the title he`d be #1)
    But Jones was the better fighter!

    Take Kessler out, and put him back in couple years from now!

    Co-sign, nobody else on that list could even have come close to matching Roy's performance against Toney who was regarded as the best fighter in the world at the time.

    not attempting to troll, but whilst i respect mcclellan's skill as a boxer and his achievements in his career, surely the outcome of the benn fight disqualifies him from being above benn in any super middle ranking.

    well put:good

    H2H, as this thread is about, Roy takes it pretty easily

    All time ranking though he didn't put in nearly enough time, hence super joe

    collins did a hell of a lot in a short time

    I understand what your saying but in my opinion even though I love Nigel Benn I think McCelellan was a better fighter I think if him and Nigel fought 5 times McClellan beats Nigel 4 out 5 , I just think McClellan was unforunate to fight the benn of that night because Benn was the best he'd ever been and was never the same again he gave his all that night, I also think the Benn of that night gives any Super Middleweight in History a hell of a fight except for Roy Jones.
