    Which Fighters Have Fought The Best Level Of Opposition In The Last Two Years?

    Was wondering which fighter(s) everyone thought has faced the strongest level of opposition in the last 2 years and performed well.
    My picks are (in no particular order)

    CARL FROCH
    - Jermain Taylor - (W KO12)
    - Andre Dirrell - (W SD12)
    - Mikkel Kessler - (L UD12)
    - Arthur Abraham - (W UD12)

    Sergio Martinez
    - Kermit Cintron - (D 12)
    - Paul Williams - (L MD12)
    - Kelly Pavlik - (W UD12)
    - Paul Williams - (W KO2)

    MANNY PACQUAIO
    - Ricky Hatton - (W KO2)
    - Miguel Cotto - (W KO12)
    - Joshua Clottey - (W UD12)
    - Antonio Margarito - (W UD12)

    Honourable mentions to
    Juan Manuel Marquez
    Fernando Montiel
    Amir Khan

    There are probably plenty I have overlooked, any thoughts?

      I immediately though Martinez before even looking at this thread, but if Clottey wasn't there, Pac would've been the top opposition fighter....

                  I really don'tunderstand how Juarez keeps getting these fights!!! Honestly it is a mystery to me, one good showing against Barrera and then he keeps getting Title shots and good match-ups to revive his career! Honestly he's a good pro and I respect him but it is obvious now he doesn't belong at the top!

                  IMO
