I saw this top ten welterweights of all time list, wot u think?

1 Emile Griffith 1,765 1958 - 1977 85-24-2

2 Sugar Ray Leonard 1,446 1977 - 1997 36-3-1

3 Jack Britton 1,348 1905 - 1930 216-51-45

4 Jose Angel Napoles 1,256 1958 - 1975 79-7-0

5 Ted 'Kid' Lewis 1,207 1909 - 1929 228-44-22

6 Henry Armstrong 1,171 1931 - 1945 149-21-10

7 Thomas Hearns 1,102 1977 - 2006 61-5-1

8 Floyd Mayweather Jr 1,102 1996 - 2006 37-0-0

9 Pernell Whitaker 1,090 1984 - 2001 40-4-1

10 Young Corbett III 994 1919 - 1940 123-12-21

Looks like the boxrec rankings.
I'm not 100% sure how their rating point system works, but there's something funky about it that's for sure.
I don't take boxrec's rankings seriously at all. It's too inaccurately mathematic. Boxing is more subjective than any other sport. Calculators can't determine greatness in the sport.

How is Mayweather on that list when he only boxed twice at welterweight against limited fighters?

In answer to your question IMO its not a good list.

yeah man i have no idea how floyd made that list. he doesnt stay at any weight long enough to make a list like this really. i think he's had three fights at welter so far though. shambra mitchell, judah and baldomir.

No Mickey Walker? No Trindad? No DLH? Mayweather spent 3 minutes at 147 and makes the all time list ::**

My favorite Boxrec list is the Featherweight rankings.

They have Hamed as the #3 Featherweight of all-time, one spot behind Willie Pep. Lol.
