Calzaghe - Eubank were never undisputed champion in their prime , so they dont count . ( I take it Eubank was put in as a joke ?)
I think Hagler is the most famous dominant champion , but its hard to say anything against SWEATPEA , hmmmm this is a tough one.
RJJ was the most talented all rounder.
EUBANK talked about in the same company of Toney, RJJ , Ray Leonard , SWEATPEA , Hagler , that is the funniest thing i have ever heard lol.

Prime Toney beats anyone you care to mention (bar Superman)
As regards to the topic of this thread, i'd put Hagler at #1 for the majority of those criteria hence I'd have to say Hagler.

I believe Roy was more dominant than any of them and in ring performance roy rarely lost a round..and mainstream is a toss up between SRL,ROY,...Achievements is where its a bit "iffy" because roy achieved so much, but during a time where there was much more to achieve.
Guess I'd say Roy, then Hag or leonard, followed by BHOP...

I'd go with Hagler and Sweetpea for fulfilling the 1st 3 criteria and Leonard for filling the last one with mainstream appeal.
Sweetpea in his prime didn't lose a fight, the 1st Ramirez fight was a robbery for Pernell and I don't count that as a lost. Hagler did lose 2 fights, but that was when he was still green, when he became champ it was just pure domination against great competition and when he lost it was against a Leonard who did pitty pat punches in a bigger ring, bigger gloves, and a catchweight fight against an inactive Hagler.
In Ring Performance
SRL- His fights w Duran, Hearns, Hagler alone dwarf the comp of everyone on the list but PW
Achievements-
SRL we have to go by quality of opp, amount of titles etc
Dominance
Hagler absolutely ruled the MW division and beat his opp silly
Mainstream appeal-
SRL this guy in the 80's was DLH, Pacquiao, and everyone else on the list rolled into one...Those who don't realize the popularity of Leonard in his hey day are too young to have been around back then...He was the face of Boxing after Ali retired
