    Mayweather had a better career. Way more of Floyds fights were at elite level. And he did most of it without getting out of second gear.

    I don't think he will be as fondly remembered, Perhaps Floyd did not win by knockout in a higher percentage of his key fights.

    A heavyweight always has the best chance to lose.Marciano undefeated is better simply he was a HEAVYWEIGHT no matter how you look at it.

    Well, Floyd by a some distance, really. Rocky did a better job of cleaning out a single division, but since Floyd has been fighting over so many divisions he's faced more top opponents in total.

    Im prertty sure Floyd was out matching his opponents and had much more evasive capabilitys and Marciano was facing some tough guys who could hurt him bc of his style which was limited and at HEAVYWEIGHT...those picking Floyd really lack boxing concepts.

    Sorry, but anyone who thinks current Joshua beats prime Ali should study up a bit themselves.
