    Yeah, a guy who's never fought a prime ATG and whose best stoppages are over Corrales and Hatton is the GOAT.

    :lol:

    Floyd isn't serious. He's just playing the role in boxing that comes from pro wrestling and is called the "heel". Ali was actually the first boxer to use it to promote his fights, styling himself after the pro wrestler Gorgeous George. Floyd does this because he knows that the public is not interested in his style, so he has to generate interest in his fights by being an *******.

    Still, as hard as he tries, he's no Ric Flair.

    :patsch Based on what? Floyds skills have never been tested by a prime great. Ali's skills were proven against the best win or lose.
    Mayweather is one of the most overrated stylist in boxing history. He has shown weaknesses in fights that would have been exposed by greater operators. If Duran had faced him instead of Castillo he would have been chased around the ring and brutally damaged. If Leonard had faced him instead of Judah/Boldomir he would have been shown what real offensive skill is, dat roll would be under serious fire power. If Hearns had faced him instead of Cotto/ODLH he would have been KO'd in under 6 rounds.

    Floyds got great defence and is very economical all round. He's a great pot shooter/counter puncher but in terms of all round skill he isn't all that. Watch some Jose Napoles. Now that guy has real skill :deal

    I once had a ***** try to convince me Floyd's resume can match up to the top ten ATG's :patsch When you compare it's flat out embarrassing. Floyd is but the dust on which those guys walk.

    Hardcore *****'s are convinced Floyd's the GOAT because he schooled Canelo :lol:
    Old fat Duran would have beat the **** out of Canelo Davie Moore style :bbb
    Hearns would have put Canelo in a coma :deal
