        Always tough to do a WW top 10 and mine changes all the time but i think im satisfied with this list :

        1. Sugar Ray Robinson
        2. Henry Armstrong
        3. Sugar Ray Leonard
        4. Charlie Burley (yes at WW)
        5. Joe Walcott
        6. Tommy Hearns
        7. Kid Gavilan
        8. Jose Naploes
        9. Emile Griffith
        10. Felix Trinidad

        There are MANY who could have made the top 10 but didnt quite on mine, Basillio, Walker...............
        Trinidad for me was a wrecker, huge Powerfull and accurate. I realise he wont be a popular choice but he sneaks into mine

              You obviously haven't seen it. It was declared split only because the ref scored it for Palomino and he later said he had the sun in his eyes. Palomino is a HOFer anyway and got thoroughly outboxed.

                1 decent win doesn't warrant place in the top 10 of a division as deep as Welter.

                  Thats true, but I was saying Benitez' win over Palomino was 100% legit.

                    LOL at the level of ******ation required to put Napoles at # 3. Where the crap are Benitez and Ketchel?

                    And yeah, I forgot about Burley.
