Who's the best current Welterweight?

[Eli_jr24]

I have to rank PBF number 1. I have to rank Mosley and Oscar behind him until somebody other than PBF beats one of them. Then I have to throw in the rest. I don't care what ya' say about oscar....he can still fight. He's just not as active!

1. PBF
2. Mosley
3. Oscar
4. Cotto
5. Margarito

I rate Floyd @ both 154 & 147 as he still holds the Ring championship for 147.
So I think Floyd is the best
Cotto's next
Margarito &then
Mosley
... the great thing we have here is that if all of these guys meet up we're in for some great match-ups!!!

[Taeth]

I guess I havent' said my whole list

PBF
Mosley
Margarito, Cotto(I think he is a little better than Marg, but not very tall which matters).
Paul Williams, Clottey, Baldomir
Collazo.

I wish I was a promoter. This is pefect for an 8-12 man tournament!! Why NOT? You have the talent, the fame, and the fighters! Boxing needs something new! Make it a 3 division tournament. 140-147-154. Just think about it guys...............Look at these names, all in for greatest title ever.....the P4P title!! oh, Let's say Tito decides to come back....Let's throw him in.

1. Hatton (140)
2. Cotto (140-147)
3. DLH (147-154)
4. PBF ( anywhere)
5. Mosley (147-154)
6. Margarito (147)
7. Judah (140-147)
8. Spinks (147-154)
9. R. Karmazin (154)
10. C. Baldomir (147-154)

Quick question.
How is it possible to rank ODLH as a Welter when he last fought at 154 and he hasn't fought at 147 since 2001.

1) Mayweather
2) Mosely
3) Cotto
4) Williams (still unbeaten and i'm basing this on him beating Margarito)
5) Chavez jr (i just like the guy and hes got bags of talent)

So you feel JCC Jr. has done more at 147 then Margarito?
How can you rate JCC Jr. top 5 of the Welters and leave out a guy whos been a Welter Champ. for 6 yrs. hasn't lost a fight at Welter since 1996.
Has been ranked amongst the top 5 Welters in the World for the better part of about 3 yrs.
Not only that but to rate JCC Jr. higher then him is even more mind boggling.

Anyone who says anybody but Mayweather is ignorant.

lol! I'm with you on that.

damn, i thought i was bad.

Well...if I got myself in the gym and worked down the weight, I'd have to say I'm the best out there at Welter right now . I'm more ducked than Margarito

[jbirdy]

sugar shane is the man at welter weight.

Because you can't argue with what Floyd has achieved, I rank him as Welter #1 and Cotto #2, despite the fact I believe Cotto can beat him. I'd rank Mosley #3, guess I gotta rank that little scroat Margarito as #4 (as much as it pains me to do it!) and I guess #5 would be Baldomir.

Clottey is pushing for a place though.

You sir get CC#72 on me.
I'll tell you why.
Cause despite not liking Margarito you can recognize and see that he belongs in the top 5 Welters around.
I dislike certain fighters and some I hate BUT if they belong ranked at the top thats just where they belong I'm not gonna knock them down cause I don't like them.
I don't like or dislike B-Hop but he is the #1 Lightheavyweight at this moment. Unitl he A) loses a fight there at LH or B) Fights at another weight and loses his rank.

why is d-hop the ring champ at, lt. heavy.. i know tarver was the champ but dont you have to be the #1 rated and then fight the champ to become the ring champ.. how could he be the #1 contender when that was his first fight at lt. heavy? just wondering.. and if he stays there, i think he should face Z. erdei.. i would rather see that fight than the winky fight.. i know more money

Sometimes thats just the way it goes.
Tarver was the Champ at LH cause he beat RJJ and Johnson.
B-Hop comes along and beats the Tarver so now B-Hops the man at LH.
'Iron Boy' Calderon is moving up in weight to face Cazares, Calderons never fought at Light Fly. but same as B-Hop he has a name for himself amongst the lower divisions if Calderon beats Cazares then Calderon becomes the man at Light Fly.

About Hopkins next opponent it really is hard to say I mean hes fighting Winky the only other 2 names that come to mind are RJJ and Joe C.
