    Glad to see this is still a topic of discussion.

    I realize now that of all the people I should have put on the list, it should have been Armstrong. I just considered him more of a lightweight since that's the weight he mostly fought at in his prime. But he did make his most defenses with the welterweight title. Oh, well. He's still top 5 pound for pound of all-time, to me.

    I'm also surprised there's not that many votes for Whitaker or Napoles. But I guess that can be understandable since Robinson and Leonard are the major candidates.

      I'd vote for Hearns, but I never considered 147 his best weight. Most experts also think he peaked at 154. I also liked his few fights at 175 and at 168 also. Beat Olajide and Kinchen and had that unforgettable match with Leonard at that weight.

        That's true. He did have his best wins at 154.

                    Where the hell is Henry Armstrong as a choice? 18 consecutive title defenses not enough to merit a vote over Shane Mosley?

                      You're confusing Welterweight with Super Featherweight.
