I'd probably go with Finito, Hopkins, or Pacquiao. Pretty difficult to answer.

P4P doesn't consider longevity and quality of career as a whole. By that measure Hopkins certainly belongs in the discussion.

Seriously, do you even bother to check facts before you post? These things aren't hard to look up.

Chavez was P4P number one for a long time mate.

As was Hopkins.

Sonnyboy is a joke.

Not only does he manipulate the height stats of fighters he also lies.

He does check the facts.

But his facts are from the school of idiocy, where past fighters are 4 inches taller than they actually were.

Ricardo Lopez is the only correct answer. If he wasn't a minimumweight he'd be considered by many historians to be on par with Robinson, Greb, and Ali.
