    Lennox Lewis, Joe Calzaghe, Carl Froch. Also Johnny Nelson for what he managed to achieve when very few expected him to do so, especially after basically being written off after the DeLeon debacle and the loss to Warring.

    Weird how loads of people are saying Froch, cause I recall Froch not getting much love during his actual career. I remember a lot of people on forums like this saying they couldn't stand him, and underrating him as a fighter.
