Where would you rank Floyd Mayweather on the greatest boxers in history?

#1

He had everything, but not too much of one thing that he had to rely on a single attribute.

Enough pop to keep you honest, the most skilled boxer of all time when it comes to the sweet science. Made 90% of his opponents look foolish. Lightning footwork at the lower weights, kept the handspeed at 140/147. Beat more Champions than anyone at a time where sports science had evolved.

Accomplished more than anyone in the sport past or present.

Most importantly lived upto the hype, where no single boxer ever has.

 

35-50 in terms of greatness.

8-12 in terms of ability.

Very overrated.

 

Top 20-25.
Talent top 10

 

Is there anyone before 1975 you think is better than Mayweather?

 

Ever heard of people like Sugar Ray Robinson and Harry Greb?

 

Top 20. Or 25. Yes, he was skilled but it only LOOKS like he's ATG skilled if you ignore 100 years of prior boxing.

 

I don’t do far back and modern comparisons.

 

What's pacs? Pbf has a better best win than pac does.
Srl 11 or 12 atg.

 

You can't name 49 boxers greater than pbf. That's ridiculous

 

"Accomplished more than anyone in the sport past or present."
"Most importantly lived upto the hype, where no single boxer ever has."

Lol. most idiotic post of the year.

 

Not talking about Pac.

 

So your cut off is at 57 years ago?

Why not go back further?

 

Pac was probably greater

 

He doesn't have to, he has to name 34, which is extremely doable.

 

Not when your best win is mab he's not.
