    2008 welterweights vs 2016 weltwerweights

    who you got.

    clottey, williams, margarito, cotto.

    vs

    thurman, porter, spence, brook.

    first match......porter vs margarito. I say porter wins this. marg never in any point of his career knew how to deal with smothers. mosley smothered him & at certain points of the willams fight willams smothered his work rate. porter is stronger then marg (physical wise not power) and marg is slow. i see porter smothering him and getting off first quickly off the break.

    2nd fight: willams vs brook.
    competitive fight but willams ends up pulling a UD with sure work rate & out hustling brook.

    3rd match thurman vs cotto.
    hard hard match. i wanted to say cotto steam rolls thurman but not so fast. I certainly think thurman is much better then the zab cotto fought & both zab & thurman play the same outside game with the "stinger" thurman has 2 stingers instead of one unlike zabs one left. i also think thurman is on par if not better then the mosley cotto fought. but in the end I gave it A SD to cotto.

    4th match. clottey vs spence. I Gave this one to spence.....clottey was very good but could be out boxed & tricked. also something always weird happened to clottey when he stepped up. i think spence has enough power, angles, and timing to win A clear decision in this one.


    how would u score it?

        I would probably take 2008 because I think Williams and Cotto are the best and would find a way to beat all of the guys in 2016 even though I think clottey and Margs are the worst of this group an wouldn't beat anyone in 2016.

          Man its a shame how people automatically throw Cotto below these guys at 147 that havent fought anyone. I dont think people realize how good of a boxer Cotto was. Prime for prime out of all the guys mentioned, Cotto is on top with only Paul Williams in the argument with him. Margarito has to have a big asterik next to his name so I dont think he should even be mentioned. Besides I think the only one hed beat is Porter.

                  Margarito and Cotto probably whip everyone 2016 has. Not a guarantee, but much more likely than not. Hard to imagine most of 2016 dealing with Williams, either.
