    How would Roger Mayweather do in this era of Lightwelters

    Roger Mayweather was actually a pretty good fighter back in the day. Minus him being chinny he had a really good offensive skill set.

    I'd think he could beat all the current Light welters except Torres and Hatton because he'd get caught.

    How about you guys?

        Also making this poll I was looking at the ring's top jr.welterweights:

        Why the hell is Vivian Harris and Mbaye in there, but Ricardo Torres and Kendall Holt are no where to be found?

          He would beat Maglinaggi easy since his chin won't be a problem there

            He'd have a pretty good career at 140 today. He was a good fighter with a very good right hand, I'd give him a chance to beat pretty much every guy at 140 now. His only problem was that he didn't have a great chin.

                He could beat all but Torres and hatton. hatton's sustained pressure and Torres' firepower would be too much for him.

                  I saw Roger fight. He was better at 130 and 135. He was still good at 140, but I saw guys like Urango and Torres knock him out. He'd make a prime Hatton work, but he wouldn't win.

                    He'd beat some Mexicans and until he fought a Mexican that could punch, and then he'd lose in a comical-looking way.
