    Yes, I should have said that I cannot see the logic. No one is an "idiot" for thinking that Ali is the GOAT.

    I've got him ahead of peak Jumbo Cummings and below the past-prime version.

    Calzaghe, not top 100. But I still consider him an ATG.
    Mayweather is around 37th.
    Being undefeated doesn't exactly mean much when you haven't fought monsters at or near their primes.

    Both rank higher than Pac. Pac's been kod multiple times and almost killed in a fight...and Floyd beat him.

    So all of the Top 10 GOATs are ranked below Floyd and Calzaghe then? They got KTFO multiple times and top boxers beat them all.

    Anyway, this isn't about Mayweather and Pacquiao, this is about the Greatest.
    Have you not a thing to say about the likes of Greb and Charles other than a quick google? Didn't think so.
