Jesus wept...I know you're trolling but please try and be a little more nuanced and subtle.. Nearly every false equivalency get's more demented as you go along...how do you actually achieve that?
Was he not? Benietez had better defense but he did not have Floyd's timing, counterpunchung power, and ability to fight in the pocket
He can't, because it hasn't. If anything, the sport has regressed significantly since the 1990's, as has already been pointed out. There is no way he can look at that pound for pound list from 1999, compare it with a list from, say, 2019, and state with all sinercity that the sport has improved greatly over the course of the ensuing 20 years and that the 2019 list is more stacked than the 1999 list.
I suggest you take some time to actually watch the fights and fighters you're speaking so sure about. It's obvious you haven't. Obvious to literally everyone but you.
Another clueless comment. 1. Hearns didn’t struggle against Benitez. 2. Floyd absolutely was not levels above Benitez, and especially at JMW. You’d have to be a complete fool to believe that Floyd could have beaten Hearns.
I would love to see what you look like. You consistently outdo yourself in terms of idiotic statements. Literally couldn't be a stupider line of thinking.
I don't want to insult. I advise BoxingIQ to actually watch the fights and fighters he so confidently talks about. It's obvious he hasn't. He has looked at boxrec records and maybe highlights, but I doubt that. When literally everyone else is telling you the same thing, it's time to re-assess your position.
