    I think The Ring loses a lotta credibility for having Collazo ahead of Clottey in the rankings

    its a joke .. Clottey is 32-2 .. and Collazo is 27-3

    so for 1 thing Clottey has the better record. and secondly all Collazo did in 2007 was get his ass handed to him via Mosley in a one sided UD

    so how the hell has Collazo maintained his ranking as #7 .. when all he's done is get whooped by Sugar Shane?

    *check out the official rankings for the WBA, WBO, IBF and even WBC .. Collazo is top 10 in all the above.
    I think it's worse they have Jeff Lacy at #4. The Ring is really generous when it comes to activity. I think unactive fights should be moved down a couple spots because they aren't doing ****, with the exception if you're the champ.

    Though Oscar De La Hoya over Vernon Forrest in their rankings? I don't think so. (And don't scream "ZOMG FAVORITISM!!" Because it was already like that before the merge)

        how many men on this list has mayweather fought?? 1
        how many men on this list has cotto fought?? 2
        how many men on this list has margarito fought?? 3 (4 if judah dares)

        plain and basic common sense. even hatton has fought more top 10 welterweights on this list than mayweather and he dont even belong on this division.
        good list but i think clottey should be 5th! switch him and zab to 7th, collazo to 8th!

                  If Floyd comes back, it looks like Cotto is the man to fight followed by Paul Williams.

                    Baldomir has fought three as well, beating Judah and Clottey and losing to Mayweather.

                      mosley is a better welterweight than baldomir, judah, or hatton. so whats your point? i like floyd just fine, but his competition at this weight class is subpar for a guy that wants to be an ATG. had he stuck at 135 and 140 and beat all the best comers, which he probably would have, the ATG status would be undeniable, but so far, at WW, he hasnt beaten the best.
