For me, Gennady Golovkin and Deontay Wilder are two of the biggest names today that lack a legacy defining victory

Golovkin and Wilder have been champions for many years with 10+ championship fights with no iconic win. They are old and on their way out, the clock is ticking for them both.

I’d say the Klit brothers. Vitali’s comeback after 3 years to destroy Sam Peter was all kinda of impressive, but nobody really props it as high as it should be. That was a MAJOR risk at the time and few people gave Vitali a chance to even get through the first 5 rounds without hurting himself. No tune ups or anything and not only does he beat the world champ, but utterly dominates him.Last edited by _Rexy_; 07-22-2019, 03:53 AM.

Ward jumped up in weight and took on the Divisions Boogeyman took his 0 and handed him 2 Ls and Ward has a W over Froch in his prime probably the 2nd best 168 fighter of his era.
Both won Straps after those Ls and are will probably be HOFers. What more are you expecting from Ward
Who would he have to beat for you to consider it a Legacy defining fight ?
Mundine isn’t and never was Great. So including him makes no sense
