    Duran-Leonard & Pep-Saddler would undoubtedly be the best of all time.

    Where were Barerra and Morales P4P when they fought? Did they only get P4P recognition afterward?

    Good call.

    Marco definitely had some pfp shit going once he beat Hamed, but there is every chance Hamed was overrated {in the pfp sense} to start with.

    I don't know or care if all these guys were considered 'p4p'ers when they fought, but as far as combined talent in a ring together, these are among the best I can think of.

    Griffith-Napoles
    Sanchez-Gomez
    Leonard-Hearns
    Jones-Toney
    Jones-Hopkins
    Robinson-Gavilan
    Whitaker-Chavez
    Pacquiou-Barrera
    Charles-Burley
    Harada-Jofre
    Pep-Saddler
    Armstrong-Ross
    Greb-Tunney
    Ali-Foreman
    De la Hoya-Mosley I
    Duran-Leonard

    You're right. No way did Hopkins deserve to be in the same ring as Hakkar.
