    I remember the Time Mag cover when Tyson was on top they had similar stats at the time as to,what he made per sec etc ..Imagine if Tyson was out now ! He would have made Floyd's purses look like chump change ..

    From a financial point of view your right, who wouldn't want to be? But what about how hard your riding his *****?

    Why are you all so obsessed with money? I pity those who measure a man by the amount of money he has.

    I don't admire Floyds money but I do admire his skill.

    OMG. Tyson or Ali would make Floyds purses look dim. Tyson career wise if you modernize for inflation definitely made way more.

    He had 400 mil in career earnings or so. That's 90s and early 00s.

    I don't count the JMM win for PBF as he cheated. Came in over the weight limit.

    Tyson was 20x the self promoter. He was actually highly creative and hilarious.

    A lot of outlandish and sad stuff that he even regrets now, but back then he was so intriguing and unpredictable. Ha ha ha.

    Floyd is predictable -

    "Wah, I got money, making money, hard work, creme de la creme, I da best"

    Tyson -

    No explanation needed, anyone can look up Tyson quotes.

    I'd bet my account Maidana KO's Pac. Pac's jaw is pure glass, and Maidana actually has speed. The overhand right would spell night night. What Am I saying? Roach will never let it happen.

    Mayweather still #1, but credit should also be given to Chino for rising to the occasion. If you think Chino won, he has a case for being #1 too. I personally still have it a draw.

    Since Bradley never really got credit for beating Pacman in their first fight, I can't give credit to Pacman for winning the rematch then to be fair. But Bradley did beat Marquez clearly, something Pacman never could so can't argue with either one being #1 either. You can have a case for Mayweather, Pacquiao, or Maidana being #1.

    Comparing Pac to Floyd is like comparing DOG**** to ICECREAM.
