    What happened to Felix Trinidad's name? Did the author forget about him? He was definitely the best welterweight this decade;and the most dominant!!

    Because Trinidad last fight at ww was in sept 99 vs De la hoya. So since this thread is about who's the best ww in this decade (2000's), Trinidad can't be mention.

    I voted Margarito:

    Miguel Cotto
    Kermit Cintron x 2
    Joshua Clottey
    Andres Lujan
    Andrew Lewis
    Sergio Gabriel Martinez

    Cotto and Mosley beat bigger names but Margo's resume is the deepest.

    Cotto could be #1 as well:

    Mosley
    Clottey
    Quintana
    Judah

    Margarito has a case but since he got caught cheated prior to the Mosley fights makes me believe he cheated in mostly all his fights so he shouldn't be mention as the best ww fighter in this decade.

    I got similar problem with him, he was one of my idols and then I felt very dissapointed...But I can't forget that Margarito took Cotto's best shots.

    This is a shitty poll. The options are between known cheaters.

    There should be no winner in this weight division.

    Vacant.

    This argument has merit.

    I excluded Mosley and Margarito for proven cheating, cannot really choose between the others on resume, so voted for Mayweather on the basis that I'd favour him to beat the others H2H

    just remember that Cotto beat Mosely so in retrospect history will serve him well
