    This generation of welterweights vs the last.

    Spence, Crawfold, Thurman, Garcia, Porter, Vargas


    vs


    Mayweather, Pacquiao, Cotto, Margarito, Mosley, Bradley



    ...assuming each fighter has to fight all the fighters at the opposing team, at their primes, which team racks up the most wins and why.

    The current welterweight crop is extremely weak

    You are trying to compare one of the better welterweight eras with one of the weakest. Isn’t really a fair comparison

        Everybody except Mayweather would get beat. This era of welterweights is actually what welterweights look like.
        A 5'5-5'6 guy is hardly ever a real welterweight in most cases.

          More like real WWs step in on fight night close to 160 lbs, the last crop all came from much lower weights and were lucky to hit 150 fight night.

          For todays crop where they are natural WWs to emulate the last group they need to make big noise at 154-160 if they don't the last lot were better.

            Agreed, especially since he forgot to include Jeff 'The Hornet' Horn, the guy who scared Bradley into retirement.

              I have to agree with you because I'm 100% sure floyd will duck them all.

                Barring May and Pac, this crop is better.

                    Complete ****.

                    Even current Pac gives these guys a handful.
