    I would say Lennox Lewis, followed by Joe Calzaghe. I don't buy into all this, "fighters were better back in the day" bollocks. The rest found a ceiling, Lewis and Calzaghe never did.

            I'll go with Wilde, the man used to street fight men literally twice his weight and he still knock them out.
            His resume speaks for himself.

                  I'd go with Ted Kid Lewis for pre-war and Naseem Hamed for post-war.
