Who's the more exciting fighter: prime Floyd Mayweather Jr. or Naoya Inoue?

True but accomplishment wise they're pretty close

 

Oh it’s easy to clean out a division is it? So Fulton is a C level guy after he lost to Inoue? Why was anybody picking a C level guy to beat him then? Also the manner that Inoue is handling these guys is impressive Floyd never man handled anyone decent over 135
Cotto was not elite at 154 he went on to get his butt kicked by B level Austin Trout. Floyd didn’t attempt to clean out any division because he knew it was too risky to his perfect record. All the hall of farmers Floyd beat were past their prime or out of their natural weight class.
I still think that Floyd is an all time great but if Inoue can clean out 126 and 130 there is a chance he can surpass him. Realistically what prime fighters did Floyd beat above 135? And we all know what happened against JLC.

 

We all know what happened against jlc he won a close fight and won the rematch going away, thats what happened. That said a prime jlc is better than anyone inoue beat.
Pbf couldn't clean out divisions because of people ducking him in the lower weights and network issues who was beating him at 130 135 140 or 147? Pbf was old himself in alot of those fights he was the older man. With that said pbf made it his business of beating the man at the weight class he was in so who cares about lesser fighters who be wouldn't get credit for beating anyway when he was fighting champs and p4p ranked fighters more often than not. Most of the guys on inoues resume aren't even worth mentioning when compared to the guys pbf beat. A faded Pbfs win over canelo at 36 is one of the best wins of his era and this current era, inoue has to dominate an elite atg boxer like pbf did to canelo and still that wouldn't be enough because the rest of his resume is sub par in comparison.

 

Inoue would not make a guy come in 2 pounds under the limit with a rehydration clause. At 130 he didn’t fight Casamayor and there is no way he won the first fight with JLC he did not beat the main man at 140 Kostya Tszyu. Floyd’s best wins are Corralles and the rematch with JLC. Despite what I have said about Floyd he is still an all time great but Inoue surpassing him is not as far fetched as you like to say.

 

So what? He weighed 1 pound less than he did in his previous fight. He got schooled by a faded pbf it was an atg win. Casa didn't want anything to do with pbf but then again if a fight doesn't happen it's PBF's fault right? Even still casa was busy losing to guys pbf beat in chico and jlc. Yeah he won the 1st jlc fight most people never actually saw the fight just repeating things other people have said who don't like him. Pbf won the 1st 5 rounds and got another round later because the ref took away a point from jlc and he won another late round at worst for pbf the fight was a draw. No way you can say after the first 5 rounds pbf didn't win another round that's crazy talk. If jlc beat pbf so clearly then what happened in the rematch? No one ever wants to talk about the rematch???

Inoue has not beaten the level of comp that pbf has period. There's no rigo who schooled a prime donaire btw or a loma who's great in his own right to test inoue, not his fault but will be held against him when he calls it a day.

 

Public Service Announcement: PBF =/= "Money" Mayweather.

That is all.

 

Freitas didn't want anything to do with Floyd either.

 

Nah the win against Canelo is tainted wasn’t above board those last couple pounds hurt the most. I could say the same thing as you saying any fight not getting made is never Floyd’s fault. I am not saying Inoue is better than Floyd I am saying he has potential to be. There is no way he won the JLC fight I don’t know anyone else besides you who legit thinks he won but credit to him for winning the rematch.

 

Nah it wasn't tainted he got fighter of the decade largely based on it. Great win arguably his best.

 

I agree with him getting fighter of the decade but I still don’t like the 152 pound clause

 

Get off inoue dick clown

 

Floyd fought the better stronger opps.I mean Floyd would obliterate Donaire in his prime.Easy work!! This is how i judge boxers who they beat and qty of their opponent.Idgaf if you are undisputed.Who you beat ? Buttler and Thumpales? Please!!

 

I actually thought ward should've gotten fighter of the decade over pbf but they gave it to him largely for his dominant win over Canelo.

 

A thread designed to have a bash at Mayweather. With the usual faces who love to bash fighters with a certain skin colour. How predictable.

 

Is this exciting to watch?
