However, some of the other fighters listed in the graphic had those wins and were recognised as the best in the division at the time of the victory.
Definitely true. Michalczewski, Narvaez, and Ottke are the only three who really don't belong. But it's going to be harder and harder to use this statistic as a meaningful gauge of historical excellence moving forward.
It's not really a list I'd look into too much, considering Hops mw run had few stand outs but his consistency was terrific. Guys with fewer title fights and wins, like Leonard and Hagler have more quality and it's surprising that Duran ain't up there.

Why don't they belong? What criteria should be used then?
