Ricky Hatton, he was undefeated and in the top 10 p4p and was coming off a few big wins. When Mayweather initially pursued the fight with Judah, Judah was a good WW and had been the champ for a while. Judah's loss to Baldomir showed that he still lacked mental focus to stay champ for a long time.
If you mean his most competitive fight, Zab Judah. In fact, it is really the only fight he's had at 147 that was competitive.
If you mean, the fighter who had the best career overall, it would have to be Shane Mosley.
Probably Zab Judah
Super judah
Hatton actually was going to win until he got ko'd
hatton
