My Top 10 Favorite Welterweight Boxers of All Time 🥊

Here are my top 10 favorite Welterweight boxers in history! This division is unquestionably one of the best in the entire sports history as it's full of excellent all time great champions spanning multiple different generations. This was a very difficult list to create for that exact reason and my honorable mentions were incredibly close to making the top 10. Although there's a very limited amount of footage of Sugar Ray Robinson at this weight, I've seen every available fight film of him and he's undoubtedly the best champ at 147 lbs. Please note that these aren't where I rank the fighters historically, just how much I personally like to watch them. If a fighter isn't included here it doesn't mean that I don't like them, they're just not a favorite of mine in this weight class. The fighters that missed out here were; Emile Griffith, Luis Manuel Rodriguez and Carlos Palomino. Hope you enjoy!

1. Sugar Ray Robinson
