    I think its Rafael Marquez but since he is not an option I voted for pbf.

    Floyd still i would say, though cotto is very complete to but i give the edge to pbf just, have calzaghe and hopkins slightly below them

    Fraud is sorely lacking in the courage category, not a complete fighter.

    Very good point! When he fights a real welter weight then he will have an argument.

    Floyd and I don't think it's that close. The only department I see him lacking is in offensive, he just doesn't have a good output but his amazing talent in every other category makes up for it.

    I guess fighting at 154 for your first fight there against an ATG in Oscar was no challenge.:-(

    Mayweather........then I guess Calzaghe, but I don't know........maybe Cotto. I might slap myself for not including Hopkins, he's the smartest fighter......but he's past his prime........

    **** it.

    Mayweather.......final answer.

    First that is a ****ed up Avatar how long do you need to have that up for? Hopefully not to long!

    Second, it was definately a challenge but the WW's are such a talented bunch and he has not managed to fight any of the elite. Why?

    Less risk more reward mentality ala RJJ.

    mayweather for me, great counter puncher, quick, powerful for his weight. great defence and quite smart in the ring. cotto gets second for me with all the above attributes of mayweather other then his defence IMO not on the same level as mayweathers. joe is a great offensive fighter. but i feel he makes a few deffensive errors, but hes not far behind

    cotto. he can box, he can brawl, his counterpunching is impressive, he is consistent, his jab is improving, he can fight outside and inside, his defense is underrated, he has lateral movement, and of course, speed and power.

    I have to agree! But Floyd in one hell of a fighter I just wish he would fight more dangerous opposition.
