If your talking lifetime resumes of current fighters I'd look at...
Bernard Hopkins (Pavlik, Tarver, Wright, De La Hoya, Trinidad, Johnson, David-Jackson, Eastman, Joppy, Holmes, Vanderpool, Brown, Echols, Allen, & Merchado)
Oscar De La Hoya (Quartey, Chavez, Whitaker, Camacho, Molina, Hernandez, Vargas, Carr, Leija, Sturm Ruelas, Mayorga, Bredahl, Gatti, Forbes, Castillejo, Coley, Rivera, Kamau, Paez)
Manny Pacquiao (Barrera, Morales, Marquez, De La Hoya, Larios, Ledwaba, Diaz, Hussien, Julio, Sasakul, Velazquez, Solis, )
Miguel Cotto (Mosley, Judah, Torres, Malignaggi, Quintana, Urkal, Bailey Branco, Abdulaev, Corley, Gomez, N'dou, Sosa, Maussa, )
Barrera (Morales, Hamed, Ayala, Kelley, Juarez, McKinney, Sanchez, Tapia Toledo, Salud, Peden, Fana, )Comment

I respect Hopkins tremendously as a fighter, particularly after the Pavlik fight.
But I think people are letting that cloud their judgement, because in resume related threads before that win, very few people said Hopkins had one of the best resumes in world boxing.
Are we talking active only fighters aswell?Comment

I already did! Look at the Oscar resume! A lot those guys are actually sure shot Hall of Fame inductees.
I think Lennox was the better overall boxer but Oscar had a better resume.Comment

Two names that popped in my head too. But I'm holding back as it's such a huge question there's going to be loads of others to consider, and lots of factors. I think it might be easy to say Pacman at the moment, for the same reason people are saying Hopkins recently - recent great wins.
Lennox Lewis's resume is worth mentioning here. A HW whom beat Tyson, Holyfield, avenged ALL his losses and unified the division and an undoubted ATG.
Surprised some haven't mentioned PBF, and RJJ aswell, for the pure reason of wins in so many divisions is very impressive and rare indeed, especially a MW winning a HW title.
Also ODL for facing so many big names, but ultimately losing to too many really.Comment
