Whats up everyone. I'm new to the boards, wondering who you guys thought the best Welterweight Was Ever?

My pick is Felix "Tito" Trinidad. I don't think he gets the respect he deserves, shadowed by the gleam of Leonard & Del La Hoya.

either robinson or leonard. i'll go with robinson.

Yogi, where the hell have you been? I haven't seen you post in a while.

I've been hanging out semi-regularily in the history section, Macho, and taking my frequent beatings down there.

¿What? Tito lost with Oscar de la Hoya dude that all world know it... Whitaker was a junkie before fight to Tito... Campas? A really loser...

Leonard
José "mantequilla" Napoles

There is actually few heavyweights of significance that were bigger than Ali. Ali had a longer reach, larger chest, larger rist, etc than Holmes and in some areas even than Foreman.

[eazy_mas]

Marvin Hagler could be the best welterwieght

[the_truth_1984]

Sugar Ray Robinson would probably be my pick for the greatest welterweight of all time.I mean when most consider him to be the greatest fighter ever how can he not be the greatest welterweight ever.Thomas Hearns and Sugar Ray Leonard would be in the Top 5.Trinidad and DLH are great fighters but I don't think they are in the Top 10 at 147.
