        I don't know if I'd put his resume over guys like

        Harry Greb
        Archie Moore
        Muhammad Ali
        Ezzard Charles
        Maxie Rosenbloom

        You can make arguments for them.

        Sam Langford doesn't have the list of champs on his resume (he was shut out of the title picture) but he was facing the top guys again and again and again and again.

          Antonio Margorito. The most feared man in boxing has the best resume ever.

          NO ONE COMES CLOSE! They cant even hold his jock strap.

                And he wasnt a boxer either, he was a brawler.

                Perpetual motion they called it. He just kept his head down and threw combinations, Juan Diaz does a great imitation of Hank Armstrong.

                  This is a great question to spark a conversation and make you really think about the history of boxing and all of its great fighters, but the fact of the matter is there is no absolute right answer. It is just too hard to compare fighters of different eras.

                      Just to make a correction, it was featherweight, lightweight, and welterweight at the same time.
