    If we're talking best ever.

    Heavy - Ali
    Cruiser - Holyfield
    LH - Moore
    SMW - Hard to say, it's a pretty new division.
    Middleweight - Hagler
    Welter - Ray Robinson

      Heavy: Muhammad Ali
      175: Ezzard Charles
      160: Harry Greb
      147: Ray Robinson
      135: Roberto Duran (Benny Leonard an extremely close second)
      126: Willie Pep
      118: Eder Jofre
      112: Jimmy Wilde

      Rating Ray Robinson #1 at middleweight isn't too ridiculous in my eyes. I have him firmly sandwich at #2 between Harry Greb and Carlos Monzon (Hagler is at #4 if you're curious). However, like many have stated, if you know little about his career at middleweight, it's probably best not to mention him at all.

                  How do you put Tszyu as one of the best welters right now without him even having fought at welter?

                  hell, we don't even know if he's retired.
