    Both are 5-division champions. Both are undefeated.
    Mayweather has never been undisputed. Crawford has been undisputed in not 1, not 2, but 3 different weight divisions. So who is the real GOAT between the two?

    Mayweather beat a young fresh Canelo 120-108, Bud beat an old weatherbeaten shell, by a **** hair. Of the two, there's your answer. But neither of them is the GOAT of anything.

    Neither.

    Paquiao, Usyk, Robinson, Ali all still better.

    Bud certainly has more balls than Floyd and his best wins are better, but Mayweather's volume of wins still trumps Crawford imo.

    Neither are, but I think Mayweather rates ahead of Crawford. I think he beat the better fighters... and I think he had a slightly larger skillset. I do think Crawford is great though, and head to head I think he could very well potentially beat Floyd.

    Usyk is a tad bit overrated. He doesn't have a definitive argument over Crawford. It's debatable.

    I won’t call either of them the GOAT. But as much as I love Crawford, Mayweather’s legacy is still superior. There’s more hall of fame men in his win column and more title fight victories.

    Mirror those above.

    Neither is the P4P GOAT but Mayweather might be top 10.

    Neither is the all time GOAT. Calm down. My position is still that Floyd is greater on overall resume.

    However, Crawford I feel is the better fighter.

    Crawford wouldn't go life and death with Maidana and get ran close by an aged Oscar.
