Do you want to list your reasons, or should we just assume your talking about Mayweather's speed rope routine?
im a big mayweather fan but ali come on,floyd is a great fighter probably the best of his era but he needs some big fights like the one nxt month to get in2 most peoples top 20-30 p4p rankings of all time
check out Clay vs Williams on youtube or something. Punch perfect. Then come back and say Mayweather is better than Ali. Or just don't come back.
Mayweather is better defensively than Ali, but Ali had the better jab and put his punches together better.
btw, at their best, Ali weight 50 pounds more than PBF (185 to 135 pounds) - So you get no right to compare than (not before PBF packs 50 pounds onto his frame and moves better than Ali "before 1968")...
Very true. But you know what, the thread starter is not defending his position and has been asked to do so. Therefore, he should be treated as a troll.
On behalf of everybody who has posted on this thread: ZabKlitschko, please explain how Mayweather is better than Ali
****ing stupid 14 year old tool, go get some knowledge. After Ali's impact on the sport, how can anyone say he's overrated et ?! Ali was the greatest thing that ever happened to this sport, a long with SRR.. you should get a clue.
Mayweather has better inside fighting abilities than Ali. But I am not sure if he has better overall skills in a P4P sense, considering Ali was a HW, but moved like a lightweight.
Mayweather has not proven himself to be better at what he does than Ali has proven himself to be at what he does. I'll go a bit further. Pound for pound, Ali is the more extraordinary athelete. As the #1 HW of all time he is the most dangerous fighter that our sport has produced. The fact that he rellies upon a combination of mental fortitude and speed to bring him his wins - at the highest level - is all the more astonishing for his size.
I know, I know.. youre right. I just miss the old version of ESB.. the new generation on this site is smoking some heavy ****.
