    Not only who wins...But who in the finals?

    I have tried the best i can to "seed" them. This is what I came up with. Seeds are based on Thread Starter's opinion. Feel free to "Re-Seed".
    And there is a Possibility that there are a few really good Welters that fought from 2000-06 that I did not mention (my bad). But these are the 16 that i came up with.
    And I put it in the NCAA Basketball Bracket format.

    1. Floyd Mayweather
    2. Oscar De La Hoya
    3. Manny Pacquiao
    4. Tito Trinidad
    5. Shane Mosley
    6. Vernon Forrest
    7. Paul Williams
    8. Antonio Margarito
    9. Miguel Cotto
    10. Joshua Clottey
    11. Arturo Gatti
    12. Kermit Cintron
    13. Zab Judah
    14. Luis Collazo
    15. Ricardo Mayorga
    16. Carlos Baldomir

    First Round:
    1 Floyd vs 16 Baldomir (Floyd)

    8 Antonio Margarito vs 9 Miguel Cotto (Cotto)

    5 Shane Mosley vs 12 Kermit Cintron (Mosley)

    4 Tito Trinidad vs 13 Zab Judah (Tito)

    6 Vernon Forrest vs 11 Arturo Gatti (Forrest)

    3 Manny Pacquiao vs Luis Collazo (Pacquiao-Barely)

    7 Paul Williams vs 10 Joshua Clottey (Williams)

    2 Oscar vs 15 Mayorga (Oscar)

    Second Round:

    1 Floyd Mayweather vs 8 Miguel Cotto (Floyd)

    5 Shane Mosley vs 4 Tito Trinidad (Tito-Close)

    6 Vernon Forrest vs 3 Manny Pacquiao (Forrest was too big)

    2 Oscar De La Hoya vs 7 Paul Williams (Oscar too strong)

    Semi-Finals (Final Four):

    1 Floyd Mayweather vs 4 Tito Trinidad (Floyd SD)

    2 Oscar De La Hoya vs 6 Vernon Forrest (Forrest at 147 was a BEAST...SD)

    Finals:

    1 Floyd Mayweather vs 6 Vernon Forrest (Floyd outboxes Viper...R.I.P.)

    How would your seeding and tournament end?

    Good thread, dont have time to do this now but i'll try to do it later.

    Out of interest though, why do you have Cotto beating Margo? They met in their primes and Cotto lost.

    Because I picked Cotto to win in their actual fight. And he was shutting out Margarito before something strange happened...NOW WE KNOW!!!!

    De La Hoya wins it. Durable chin, great talent and skill, he's not negatively affected by the weight like Floyd is, and he's smart and can adapt his style to his opponents.

    Why put Margo in if you are gonna make an excuse that his gloves are loaded. In the end ill have Mosley vs Delahoya based on the way you paired them and who knows who wins this time I thought SHane won the 1st one by 1 point, and Oscar won the 2nd by 3 points. Depends how Oscar fought him in this one. I think a prime Shane would beat Floyd but we will see in May, maybe even an older Mosley beats him.

    as always, Floyd is getting massively overrated without actually proving his skillset against anyone of the calibre being discussed here:deal
