    :lol::rofl
    You mean these same idiots who said #48 would beat PBF for years and voted for him there to? How did that work out in reality?:rofl These trolls who hate PBF put him ahead in this poll no reputable boxing source would put #48 ahead The Ring didn't have #48 ranked ahead they had PBF ahead and this was before they even fought.:deal Boxers also rank PBF higher I couldn't care less what a bunch of bitter PBF haters have to say May 2nd will live with them forever and PBF will always be the best fighter of this era.:hi:

    In the October issue of Ring magazine, they asked 20 writers and historians to list their top 20 fighters since World War 2.
    Points were awarded to each fighter : 20 points for 1st place placing, 19 points for 2nd place ect, ect.
    Here is how the total came out. The number of 1st place votes are in brackets:


    1. Ray Robinson - 396pts - (17)
    2. Henry Armstrong - 339 - (1)
    3. Muhammad Ali - 324 - (1)
    4. Roberto Duran - 296
    5. Joe Luis - 293
    6. Ray Leonard - 258
    7. Willie Pep - 246 - (1)
    8. Archie Moore - 189
    9. Julio Cesar Chavez - 171
    10. Ezzard Charles - 164
    11. Perenell Whitaker - 132
    12. Floyd Mayweather Jr - 118
    13. Marvin Hagler - 117
    14. Carlos Monzon - 98
    15. Eder Jofre - 86
    16. Sandy Saddler - 82
    17. Roy Jones Jr - 80
    18. Rocky Marciano - 77
    19. Bernard Hopkins - 66
    20. Ike Williams - 55

    Where's #48 on this list?:lol:

    Their peers rank PBF higher "The Bible Of Boxing"ranks PBF higher and this was before the fought. These trolls on here are delusional haters and will never give the man his due they're the same ones for years who said #48 would beat PBF and #48 would tee off on PBF from all angles he has too much speed and power they don't know **** about boxing don't understand ring IQ and controlling distance and it was always easy to see that PBF would win this.:deal If you can't beat a past it EM you're not beating PBF if you can't beat JMM clearly in 4 fights who gave him fits with educated footwork and counters you're not beating PBF it's that simple.:deal

    These fools are nothing but wishful thinkers and haters and have been owned and proven wrong and now that it's over and PBF won they're mad and I love every second of it.:yep So go ahead and vote away I hope #48 wins this poll by 100 votes because in reality H2H he lost and historically ATG ranking isn't better either.

    Floyd and its not even debatable.

    Manny was voted fighter of the decade yet he lost in that same decade and had a draw as well in that decade. Had losses before that as well. You can't ignore that.

    Both guys are great but Floyd ranks higher. Champion for 18 yrs. That's damn near two decades and regardless of what any of us say he was facing champions or former champions for over half of his resume. They have 5 common opponents and Manny lost to one of thosr opponents by KO and arguably lost the 3rd fight that he had with that opponent Marquez. Then regardless of what you think the fact is Mayweather also beat Manny. Those are just the facts.

    But But #48 beat EM and MAB. PBF can't possibly be better and #48 was more exciting PBF was a runner.

    Floyd would be higher on the list if kitty kat slapping, hugging, strong arm pulling, and ducking below the waistline are positively scored in boxing matches..

    as it is his most effective punches where the jabs for his 750ml IV.

    The crazy thing is most people in here voting Pacquiao are making comments that have no substance. Talking about Floyd ducking below the waste and other **** that has nothing to do with anything when it comes to ranking them.

    It actually tells me that most of you only started watching Floyd and boxing in 2009 bc Floyd has always fought the way that he fights. The only difference is when he was younger he had an amazing offense to really make guys pay for missing. Go back and watch and you will see him doing the same stuff but it was lighting quick and he would let them hands go.

    Bunch of kids whining on here.

    Most people on here don't know **** about boxing and only started watching it a few years ago. They never saw that version of PBF that you mentioned. They think this current version of PBF is the way he's always fought. With that said there's nothing wrong with this current version it's still a stylistic hell for most but in his earlier career was much more of an offensive force with ATG defense.

    Champion for 18 yrs that's funny he was retired for 2 of them ..

    And Manny fought Marquez 4 times several of which were at lower weights when Marquez fought Floyd he had to jump up 2 weight classes to do so and Floyd had to cheat the scales to do so ..Those are also facts ! Mayweather also had to cheat against Manny yet another fact ..Greatness doesn't need to cheat to win.
