Kovalev has the most rounded resume there. Quantity, names, same division as him, consistency.
Golovkin -- domination but lacking a breakthrough name. Canelo has lots of big names on his resume but one of them was a one-sided loss, many of the others are silly fights with huge size gaps or odd catchweights. There is room for argument between these two I guess. The thing is Golovkin "pulled a Canelo" by fighting Brook (a name with a size gap) and many people consider it a low point for him. So a typical day in Canelo's career was a lowpoint for Golovkin? While despite being the heavier of the two, Canelo stepping up and dominating Lemieux for a legit middleweight belt would be seen as a colossal career defining achievement.
Ward -- Obviously inactivity since the Super Six.
