    Santa Cruz — Frampton and Mares
    Frampton — Santa Cruz and Nonito
    Joshua — Wlad, Whyte, Parker, Povetkin could all be called quality wins

    Would you all consider Dogboe and Villa quality wins for Navarrete? I had rated Villa pretty highly and Dogboe was unbeaten and coming off a hell of a year.

      Russell has held a world title for 5 years making 5 defences and Linares is a 4 weight 5 time champion. I think they’re two quality wins.

      I’d agree both guys are below the truly elite fighters but they were still quality wins.
      but who have they actually beat? nobodies.

        GRJ has beat JoJo Diaz, Tug Nyambayar, Johnny Gonzalez. 3 solid wins right there.

        Linares has beat Oscar Larios, Rocky Juarez and has a good resume at 135. Beat Crolla twice both on away soil, stopped Kevin Mitchell on away soil and beat Luke Campbell too.

        They’re both quality wins. Get over it.

          Santa Cruz was a maybe for me, but Mares was kind of past it when he beat him.

          Frampton is a good shout.

          AJ- hell no. He doesn’t have one quality win IMO.

            I debated putting Spence in. Just wasn’t sure about Brook or Garcia. Porter is definitely a quality win.

              Lol I almost flipped out and thought you were asking what boxer has 2 good wins in their history. Was shocked to see no Leonard mentions.

              You wanna know the uncomfortable truth? Canelo is definitely elite by today's standards, but I wouldn't say he's elite throughout history. Crawford has ZERO good wins.

                  "Quality" is of course very subjective but showing your bias a bit here me thinks.

                    It is subjective but not being bias at all just looking at the facts.

                    AJ’s best two wins are Wlad and Povetkin right? Wlad 41 and 18 months inactive and Povetkin 39. Neither were world champions when he fought them. That’s not subjective that’s factual.

                    They’re respectable wins but neither qualify as quality wins when you put them into context.

                      Brook was definitely a quality win. People now try to knock that win for some reason but Brook fought well and it was competitive until he got broken down.

                      If you put Porter up there, then Garcia essentially fought him even and was tight with Thurman as well. I would put Spence up there with two quality wins.
