Bernard Hopkins: 20 successful title defenses (the middleweight record), he's the only man to knock out Felix Trinidad & Oscar De La Hoya, & he moved up in weight & beat the best light heavyweight of that time, Antonio Tarver (Ray Robinson tried the same thing but failed).
Ray Robinson: Has recorded 175 wins & 108 of them was by knock out, was named ESPN's best boxer of all time (over the likes of Ali & Ray Leonard ), & he was the 1st boxer in history to win a divisional title 5Xs.
Marvin Hagler: He recorded 62 wins & 52 of them was by knock out, he had 13 successful title defenses (the formal record), & has knocked out the likes of Duran & Hearns.
Sugar Ray Leonard: His 1st appearance at middleweight he took on the likes of Hagler & was successful. His win over Hagler broke the long riegn of Hagler's titles defenses. He also has beaten Duran, Hearns, & Benitez....and he's won a title at light heavyweight as well.
