I'd give it to Felix Trinidad
I feel a certain emptiness whenever I see him. He solidified his standing as an All-time Welterweight, but the rest of his career after that leaves something to be desired. After he lost to Hopkins, he fought only four times in 7 years, unceremoniously getting beat in a battle of overweight has-beens in 08 against RJJ. Its like a piece of Felix died in that ring in 2001 and he was never the same.
He was 28 and out of his prime. If he could have 2-4 more years of prime in him, and fought with the desire and dedication that made him a legend and most importantly a steady pace of fights, who knows where he could have been when talking not just ATG Welterweights, but ATG boxers, period.

I always wondered but that beating Hopkins gave him and how he must feel he let down PR really got to him...

Does dead count as "past prime" because I'd like to see Valero have a go at the top 140-147 guys.
