[Bronson66]

Since we have a few new names,[if not new posters ,only the names have been changed to protect the guilty]lol
I thought it might be time to try another list of the top ten all time welterweights.
Who makes your ten?
Purely for consideration
Mayweather Jnr
Trinidad
Basilio
Leonard
Ross
McLarnin
Armstrong
Gavilan
Robinson
Griffith
Napoles
Curry

Ray Robinson
Ray Leonard
Henry Armstrong
Kid Gavilan
Emile Griffith
Joe Walcott
Barney Ross
Jimmy Mclarnin
Jose Napoles
Floyd Mayweather

Kid Gavilan
Emile Griffith
Joe Walcott
Barney Ross
Jimmy Mclarnin
Jose Napoles
Floyd Mayweather

The Floyd started and ended his career with b@ngz

130 goat
147 top 10

Floyd sealed the deal by easy working a top 15 all time great manny who was still in good condition and 2 pounds heavier than Floyd on fight night

Easy working a top 15 is an incredibly BUFF feat not seen since Ezzard whooped Archie in 1946 then Joe in 1950

Prime 147 Mosley > Mayweather.

Prime 147 Mosley > Mayweather.

My top 4 are set
1) SRR
2) SRL
3) Hearns
4) Napoles
After that it gets tricky, you have a slew of guys who were solid at WW, but even greater at a lighter weight: Armstrong, Mayweather, Duran, Crawford, Ross, Pea, Pacquiao, De La Hoya, and Canzonerri. As well as a group of greats who were just a step down from the first four in Gavilan, Griffith, Trinidad, and Ike Williams.
I Probably go
5) Mayweather- he was more in his prime and more at a natural weight than some of the others.
6) Duran- a short lived but solid run at welter
7) Bud- similar to Duran
8) Armstrong- hear me out, his best run at welterweight was actually him as a lightweight. P4P he was better than most anyone on this list, but welter was his ceiling and he wasn’t at his best there
9) Gavilan
10) Griffith, though Manny is close, which say a lot because he’s naturally a lot smaller.

Strictly eye test, he doesnt have a great ww resume, but I feel him to have been that good.

- - Spencer was clearly shot after taking flying lessons in his Ferrari as we saw in his tune up against ugly.

Nobody wants to fight Bud because he's poison at the boxing gate. Only fighter Arum ever had that he lost $$$ on.
