    that being said, im going with zab judah. he was past his prime when he lost to corey spinks.
    That is the first time I have EVER heard anyone use the words 'Sugar Ray Robinson' and 'overrated' in the same sentence. Ray Robinson was the greatest hands down, and arguably the greatest fighter who ever lived.

          SRR is the greatest fighter of all time and the second category is vacant....then Henry Armstrong.

            I can name three welterweights off the top of my head who virtually everyone considers better than Trinidad. No way Trinidad is #1 welterweight of all time.

                Hahah i feel so sick after some1 called Suger Ray Robinson "overrated"

                Robinson had Skills that make Mayweather look a average boxer!
                On my list he the "greatest" not even talking Welterweight no am talking "the greatest boxer ever".

                Robinson was the first boxer in history to win a divisional world championship five times, a feat he accomplished by defeating Carmen Basilio in 1958.
                Ronbinsons beat the likes off-Kid Gavilan,LaMotta,Randy Turpin,Rocky Graziano,Joey Maxim ,Olsol & Gene Fullmer.

                Sugar Ray Robinson retired from the ring with a record of 173-19-6-2 (108 KOs) in 200 professional bouts, ranking him among the most prolific knock-out winners of all time.

                Even Ali when askd many times who was the greatest off all times without hesitation he always said he was the greaest heavyweight but Robinson was without the GREATEST!.

                  natural 147ers who would have licked the floor with tito)

                  ray robinson
                  ray leonard
                  jose napoles
                  thomas hearns
                  emile griffith

                  smaller gys who would have beaten tito even if out of their prime weight when they fought at 147

                  henry armstrong
                  barney ross
                  oscar de la hoya
                  pernell whitaker

                  seriously whoever mentioned tito as the best welterweight ever is out of his mind: tito cant deal with a fighter boxing behind a good jab. The people of his same size mentioned above would all school him, bad.
