    Team Seniors:
    1) Mosley
    2) Mayweather
    3) Pacquiao
    4) Hatton
    5) Marquez

    Team Juniors:
    1) Bradley
    2) Alexander
    3) Khan
    4) Maidana
    5) Ortiz

    All these belong to LWW or a weightclass close to. But which generation has more raw talent? If you'd have to put your money on one of them, which would it be?

    Seniors, easy. And to be fair lets remember "team junior" are all just coming into their own, they have a lot of things they will accomplish in the future but you loaded up team senior with a bunch of sure fire hall of famers.

    No joke. I genuenly believe that the juniors have close to, if not as much, talent as the seniors. It's a good point though that they still have room and time to get better.

    My juniors would have included Ward, Dirrell, Bradley and Gamboa first. But 1,2,3 and 5 of the seniors are some of the greatest fighters of the last 20 years.

    Ward and Dirrell are out of the original posters equation because he's keeping it in the weight classes ranging from 126-147.

    This is destined to be the most lopsided poll ever.

    This should be the first 100-0 poll in the history of ESB.
