Who were the top 5 Welters when.....

[-Swizzy-]

Does anyone remember who were the top 5 welterweights when Mayweather fought Arturo Gatti at Jr. Welterweight?

For some reason I can't remember but I knew at the time. I think judah was #1 but I can't remember. And this is according to ring magazine and if you can't remember their ranking, than just make up according to who you think should've been top 5 at the time. They fought June 2005.

my own best guess is:
Judah
Margarito
Cintron
Collazo
Urkal

This is how the Ring had it at the END of 2004.

Cory Spinks, Champion

Top 10 contenders

Antonio Margarito
Zab Judah
Thomas Damgaard
Michele Piccirillo
Manuel Gomez
Kermit Cintron
Jawaid Khaliq
Carlos Baldomir
Teddy Reid
Cosme Rivera



Then Judah beat Spinks in Feb of 05', so obviously that shook things up.

Judah
Margarito
Cintron
Collazo

that's close... but cintron had just come off his loss to margarito, so his name probably wouldnt have been in there, regardless of ability.
