These are the current top5 or so in the hw division, so surely they must be the best. The rapid evolution of this sport taken into consideration.
On a more serious note, probably something like this.
1. Evander Holyfield
2a. JCC
2b. Pernell Whitaker
4. Pacquiao
5. Hopkins or floyd.
People could convince me that jcc, pernell and pac could be moved around. I also probably overrate holyfield, but his resume is great. Also Roy Jones jr could possibly be considered along with hopkins and floyd for the fifth spot.
And to clarify, this list is based on resume and accomplishments. Not talent, ability, potential etc.
