I dont know who to put at the top between Hop and Roy, they are so close. But after that, I'd probably go Tito, Morales then Ward, or Ward then Morales. Ward would be easily over Morales if he didnt leave the sport as early as he did. In fact Ward is probably the second most talented guy on this list, but it's blasphemy to put him anywhere other than 5, and I'm a Ward guy. He stays in the game and does Ward things, and #3 would have been his for sure. |

I think a few more years of Ward being Ward and he could be #1. |

Yeah he walked away too soon for these arguments. But Idk, would he have beaten a Bivol or a Beterbiev, or maybe an Usyk to get there? We know he'd beat all those 168 pounders. |

Ward didn't have the competition and he arguably lost the first fight against Kovalev. 1. RJJ 2. Morales 3. Hopkins 4. Trinidad 5. Ward |

RJJ's reign was just too dominant, for too long a time. And he won decisive victories against Toney, Hop and stopped plenty other good fighters. Hop beat Tito and piled up big wins and defenses. Morales never quite reached the height of Tito's greatness and wasn't as spectacular, at their very best. But i love me some Terrible. Morales just a bad ass and i got him ahead of JMM and Barrera. Ward possibly the best fighter on the list, did everything he needed to do. Just hung it up quick |

Kessler, Froch, ruining and ending the Krusher, Abraham, Dawson you know good well Dre got some great wins he can arguably be #1 but realistically we all know he wont be regarded as such. Just depends how we defining greatness |

Ward didn't look good or impressive during any of those Super 6 matches and he arguably lost to Kovalev the first time. Anyone who thinks he belongs anywhere near the top of this list is off their rocker. |
