    Paul Williams would be at the top of the list if everybody else listed in most people's top five would have the balls to fight him.

Impressive win over Collazo, even Estrada who at one point was a somewhat decent fighter. I think Margarito's secondary wins are better than Shane's but when I factor in what Shane did to him...I just can't.
      he was top 10 at one point at 147.

      he beat a few undefeated prospects on his way up.

          lies.

                  Cotto
                  Mosley
                  The Punisher
                  floyd
                  Clottey
                  In the last 5 years Cotto edges Mosley slightly but if u said at welterweight period,Mosley would be #1,because he has prime Oscar & Forrest on his resume as well!!Also I didn't include Margarito in my list because of the doubts about his gloves!!

                    * Whole career in question because of his cheating. Clottey should be in his spot.
