GJC 09-13-2009, 06:27 PM Wen it's a talk about who's the best lightweight ever, I see these 3 names most often. Who do u think is the best LW? Duran for my money, Benny Leonard is worth a look too if you like your lightweights, he was a fantastic fighter back in the 20's there is some footage of him around. I would make best LW between Benny Leonard and Duran IMO. Obama 09-13-2009, 06:28 PM Joe Gans Pernell Whitaker Roberto Duran Benny Leonard Shane Mosley Mayweather...we're not rating Super Featherweights here. mhager91490 09-13-2009, 07:55 PM I don't think Mayweather has a real argument and Mosley had a great record at the weight but not any huge wins at the weight. Where is Benny Leonard, Ike Williams, Joe Gans or Carlos Ortiz, any of those four have a better argument at being the best lightweight of all time than any Mayweather. Oasis_Lad 09-13-2009, 08:00 PM Duran for me. Personally, I don't think Mayweather or Mosley are even top 5 at Lightweight to be honest. catalinul 09-13-2009, 09:57 PM Duran. Whitaker second. bojangles1987 09-13-2009, 10:28 PM Duran. How do you put Mayweather and not Pernell Whitaker? MANGLER 09-13-2009, 10:32 PM Off that list it's Duran by miles. Shadows 09-13-2009, 10:40 PM Duran, and by a country mile. If anything, Leonard, Whitaker, Gans, etc. should've been the other choices.

Mayweatjer shouldn't even be in the top 10, SMH at these noobs that say he's the best. Duran is definitely the best, then you got sweet pea, leonard, gans in any order you want basically. This is a terrible poll BTW. JAB5239 09-14-2009, 12:33 AM Alotta historians say Mosley was at least in the top 5.

This is a terrible poll BTW. With all due respect Chip, what boxing historians have you ever seen list Mosley as a top 5 lightweight all time? RightCross94 09-14-2009, 03:41 AM Wtf Kind of a question is that. BattlingNelson 09-14-2009, 04:43 AM Of the 3 Duran is hands down the best. He's in the all-time top three at LW with Joe Gans and Benny Leonard. The 2 other names will have a hard time cracking the top 10 IMO.
