    I consider Diaz the best of the three easily, however Marquez did not put a schooling on him like B-Hop and Shane did on their respective opponents

    and I class Pavlik as better than Margarito. Plus I feel Hopkins is closer to the end than Mosley

    so i voted Hopkins > Pavlik

      mosley's performance was the best.

      1) he dominated margo
      2) he KOed margo
      3) margo was the MAN at 147

      hopkins only dominated pavlik outside of pavlik's weight division where he rules.

      jmm was getting worked by diaz and diaz is a gatekeeper; but at least he got the KO.

        Good point that has been brought up that people were saying Margarito had one of the best chins in the game, and Mosley KO'd him pretty easily.

            Mosley and it's not close.

            He destroyed a guy that many didn't think could be destroyed and made it look beautiful.

            1)Mosley

                it would have to be either mosley over margarito, or hopkins over pavlik.....

                for the simple fact they were heavy underdogs, and the fight wasn't about whether they'd lose, but most idiots thought hopkins and mosley would be KO'ed!!!!

                both guys dominated their respective bouts, but i have no problem giving the nod to shane b/c he knocked margarito out......

                  37 yrs old... marg looked indestructible and unknockoutable amd mosley knocked him out

                  hopkins fought pavlik basically 2 weight classes and 10 pounds above what he had ever fought

                  and diaz had already been out boxed and beaten by campbell



                  dont get me wrong here though... ALL GREAT WINS....
                  What about Pavliks 166 catchweight with taylor?

                    that weight **** is an excuse they use.....

                    as if 170 will make you a completely different fighter than 166...

                    ppl need to realize hopkins doesn't take fights unless he see's something in an opponent he thinks he'll be able to exploit. he knew kelly was one dimensional and has poor footwork.....

                    the catchweight was 170 b/c it'd be easier for pavlik to make that weight, than for hopkins to come all the way back down to 160.

                      Let's get something straight.

                      Anybody who beats Taylor 2 times in a row, one by KO and is the lineal middleweight champ does any one thing poorly. Sure he may be behind guys like Hopkins when it comes to footwork and knee bending etc.....but he does nothing poorly. Pavlik wouldn't be where he is if he did. Period.
