In case anyone was interested, here's the write-up I did on the welterweight survey.

I am not personally taking issue with your list. Everyone is entitled to his or her opinion.

However, when one considers that the only two first place votes that did NOT go to Robinson went to fighters who fell outside the overall top ten, I think my description is entirely accurate.
