    You know that Floyd is going to go against popular opinion.

    Duran is arguably top five. All of the rest are ATG's but definitely not top 5. There's been well over 100 years of boxing and he limited his top 5 to fighters who fought from the 70's to the 2010's. Can't take this serious.

    Lol Harry Greb is about as real to Mayweather as santa clause because no one as ever seen him fight. No one's under any obligation to include any of those guys in their top 5 especially Marciano

    This. Outside of himself, everyone he mentioned were guys that he would have seen fight growing up.

    This might be the worst list I've ever seen. You've got one guy you've never seen fight, one guy with less than 15 pro fights who's never beaten anyone and a guy who wasn't even the best fighter in his division at any point
