People forget how many great welterweights there have been. This list also doesn't cut off from around the early/mid 1900's as most people's list, old time greats such as Tommy Ryan and Ted 'Kid' Lewis are there, deservedly so.
Tito being inside the top 25 is a compliment.

Whatever else can be said, though, they are, without question, the two best welters who ever fought, whether you have Leonard or Robinson first on your own list. Anyone else, and you shouldn't even be allowed to watch the sport, in my opinion.

I do admit that, while I try to remain unbiased in discussions like this, it's hard sometimes, having seen SRL's fights live, and being so amazed at the time they were happening.

Leonard however has the fights with Hearns, Duran and Benitez which make it close.
