    ROFL Tell the truth You've never been inside a boxing gym have you let alone a ring. I doubt you've ever seen a fight LIVE even. Youre just a kid lol you believe Mayweathers hype
    on paper Mayweather is 48-0 today In reality he should be 43-4-1
    :patsch:patsch

    Floyd has not beaten a HOF in his prime though.Titles have devaluated over the years.

    T.B.E.

    ("The Best Ellerbe-conditioned". :bart That's right, I stand by that. I rate him head and shoulders above anyone else for whom Leonard was ever S&C coach, including Rahman)

    I think in terms of ability, he's top 10 all-time.

    Floyd was involved in close fights though.Dela hoya, castillo twice, Maidana, Cotto.

    He can consider himself lucky that he always gets the nod.

    I rank Duran, Hearns Hagler and Leonard above him.

    Floyd ranks around Top 30 - Top 50 ATG in my book.
    If he beats somebody like GGG, he ranks among Top 15 in my book.

    It reads 48-0 thanks to NSAC & Vegas officials. I should think Floyd bought Joe Cortez & Kenny Bayless a rolex apiece at least Not to Mention Dave Moretti & other Vegas judges. THEY are the reason he's 48-0 in the record books

    :patsch Go watch ballet :lol:

    No one argues about Floyd's incredible God Given boxing talent
    What annoys people is how he's basically wasted it. To be top ten all time you need talent sure but you also need the courage , cojones & fighting heart of a top ten ATG Floyd sadly seems to have lacked that

    I don't think Floyd is TBE. I wouldn't even have him in my top 10.

    But I think in terms of ability, he's up there with the very best.

    Wow, so who do you have #1? The Rock?

    ...and who are the other nine? I didn't realize Ellerbe had actually conditioned eleven or more different boxers??

    I never trust fat S&C coaches. It'd be like going to a dentist with half of his teeth black and/or chipped!
