Your top10 all time welterweights

Although two different sports, I wrestled for 11 years and most weigh ins were held about two hours before the tourney/meet and everyone still cut massive amounts of weight.
Long story short, it would not change a thing.Comment

If you can make the weight, then you deserve to be in that division. If you can't, then move up.

9. Mickey Walker
10. Luis RodriguezComment

this list is an absolute ****in joke, man. I hate when people on this board act childish and make a mockery of our sport. Ok, what you need to do is swap #10 with #1, then #2 with #8. Then it's perfect.Comment

Nice list, top 2 would be same as mine.
Can't believe no one has mentioned Fritzie Zivic. Not the greatest ever but would make into my top10 purely because of the fighters he fought and beat.Comment

Because I saw the first fight and I didn't find it entertaining sir. I thought MArgarito vs Cotto was much more entertaining then Marg vs Williams. i thought Mosely vs Cotto was more entertaining as well....I saw Williams fight a few times and I don't find his fights to be very entertaining. I see him and Clottey in the same class BORING!!!!Comment

Thomas Hearns
Ray Leonard
Pernell Whitaker
Oscar De la Hoya
Shane Mosely
Felix Trinidad
Antonio Margarito
Luis Collazo
Miguel Cotto
Paul Williams
these are the only ones that ive actually seen fight at the weight so in my opinion these are the best to be. Havent seen too many of the older fighters so this list is going to change eventually in my mind.Comment

You don't see him as a true WW?
He has fought there his whole career. You could say a similar thing about Margarito. He's not that much smaller than Williams and his height advantage over Cotto was monstrous so does that mean you shouldn't take that win as a real win?
So, while it's fair that Marg stands head and shoulders above most fighters in the WW division, it is not okay that Williams can be a tiny bit taller than him and that because of that he shouldn't be regarded as a real WW?

You do realise how this looks? You know it's the best ever? Didn't Collazo only win a title and keep it for about one or two fights? How the hell can you have Marg, Collazo, Cotto and Williams in that list? That's just demented!

then paul williams would probably come in at 170 lbs, thats crazy ****
we need same day weigh ins, its not fair for small guys at the weight to be fighting monsters that drain down to the weightComment
