For those who won titles at that weight Alexis Arguello Manny Pacquiao Julio Cesar Chavez Hector Camacho Oscar DeLaHoya Floyd Mayweather Brian Mitchell Arturo Gatti Who wins? All were undefeated at that weight. Consider ages, records and title defenses up to the point of leaving the division.
Oscar de la Hoya just had two fights at the weight. This tournament should include Kid Chocolate, Azumah Nelson and Sandy Saddler. The result is the same: Mayweather wins, imo.
Mayweather easily. He was big at 130. The most skilled too in that list. He had big punching power and speed too. Too much for anyone in history to overcome.
For what it's worth here's my order. 1. Floyd Mayweather 2. Alexis Arguello 3. JCC 4. Hector Camacho (was really a beast at this weight) 5. Oscar DeLaHoya 6. Manny Pacquaio 7. Arturo Gatti (although I think he beats Manny at 130:yep )
You didnt rank them and styles make fights so just picking who I think the best fighter isnt wont really tell me who would win a tournment. Im go with the way u have them in order. Arguello TKO 6 Pacquio Chavez UD Camacho DLH UD Mayweather Mitchell UD Gatti Arguello SD Chavez DLH TKO 9 Mitchell Arguello UD DLH
I thought Pacquiao lost to Morales at 130lbs in their first bout? :huh Anyway, what a list that is! For me, I think it's between Mayweather & Arguello for the no.1 spot. Then again, JCC was a brilliant boxer at SFW. Very hard question this is! I can't decide who would come out on top, only that I think it would be between Mayweather Arguello & JCC.
