'Peerless' Jim Driscoll definately deserves some consideration.

Yes, Ali relied on his quickness - too much later in his career. But, his greatest defensive skill was throwing off opponents' timing. His feints, just simple head movement, had foes unloading wild shots or hesitating all night. His quick counters also made opponents think defensively.
But the best, the most unhittable, were Benitez, Whitaker, Pep, Tunney, Burley and Jack Johnson.
No mention of Pedroza on this thread?

I completely agree with you on this one. I also will put Miguel Canto and Hilario Zapata. Both of these guys were also awesome defensively.
