    Okay so you've mentined the ways that Floyd isnt like Ali. Well SRR in many ways wasn't like Ali either, does that mean SRR can't be considered as the Greatest.

    Secondly, the HW division is a different ball game all together. So to compare 200+ pounds with Mayweather has done from 130 - 154 is very difficult.

    Thirdly, If a fighter is so good against his current generation of fighters that he is never tested, how can you penalise them for that let alone say that means they have no warrior spirit.

    You should have just called the thread 10 reasons why I dont want to give Mayweather any props.

    I didn't need to read more after #2 to know you're completely clueless and pathetic with your attempt here.

    1) How can ANYONE who is a FIVE WEIGHT DIVISION CHAMPION make it fighting "smaller" opponents?, that should shut you the **** up right there. Ali was bigger than Foreman, Frazier, Norton, Shavers and many others, it means NOTHING, it's the heavyweight division.

    2) Ali was more of a mover before he was suspended for three years, he mostly danced around and relied on his legs A LOT more than when he came out of suspension. In a sport like boxing inactivity can be lethal, one year off could count as A LOT if the fighter isn't FORCED to be out, if the fighter is taking a break then the results are unknown. Ali couldn't use his legs more and had to adapt and be more flat footed coming out of suspension, adapting the way he did and overcoming fighters he was supposed to get destroyed against is what makes him the greatest. Ali was FORCED into showing two versions of his self, that's what makes him the immortal athlete that he's known for today even though his style was NOT as exciting as Tyson's or any aggressive fighter's style. This is a sport based on styles and with styles comes complications, most of these ******s here don't even know what flexible means in the ring or what makes certain movement special and unique when specific fighters have the ability to master them.

    I won't even continue reading the rest because if you fail in your first two then the rest is nonsense.

    Sugar Ray Robinson was only champion in 2 weight classes. Floyd has been much more dominant than any other fighter including the much better much juiced Paquiao in 5 weight clsses. He won so easily and that is the only thing that make some of you think that he has no heart. What does Tito Trinindad after the fight with the la hoya?? Run up in weight and make stupid monetary claims to not fight Oscar again. Floyd has no heart, but the only questionable fight that he has was with Castillo, and he was hurt in his shoulder, and what he does?? He fight Castillo back inmediatly and win easily and shut out his detractors. Dont be so stupid please. Make good arguments. Paquiao has lost, he lost to Marquez in his first fight and struggles to win the second one. Floyd never struggles, Floyd does not run, he box, and is most of the time he is flat footed against his opponents. He makes them miss and make them paid. He fought at 154 lbs with Oscar and interchange in the center of the ring with him. Paquiao first kill him making weight and then beat him. I want to know what is the next excuse after Floyd beat Paquiao. Because the critics will never stop talking **** no matter what he does. The people who know about boxing praise his super human abilities, why some of you can see what is obvious? Because the majority of you dont know nothing about boxing. Bixing is punche without being punched. That is the reason why Robinson, Ali, Leonard and the others are the best of all time. Because they know the sweet science. And after one of you make stupid claims. Paquiao is a great fighter, i dont take nothing about him, because his merits and awards has been obtained in the ring. In the same way that Floyd does. The only difference is that Floyd is better and his record show 0 loses, not 3.

    Void refused to fight Pac, Cotto, Margarito, Mosley and who knows who else.

    Floyd has not fought the best of his generation, plain and simple. Do you think he has. That's what he has to do to be great. Money fights do not decide legacies, fighting the best does.

    Look, every fighter gains weight. Floyd started at 30 and now signs fights at 144, that's 14 pounds. Big ****ing deal....PW just jumped 13 pounds.

    Foreman came in 3 1/2 pounds more than Ali and was a much bigger guy naturally. He fought a guy 30 pounds more than him, can Floyd even compare?

    And you're saying that being forced out of boxing isn't as hard on your body? Sounds to me like you think we soulld be impressed with Floyd coming off an 18 month layoff? Ali would have never quit like that. He would have faced the likes of Cotto, Mosely, Margo, PW. In fact, he would have been calling them out.

    Ali's achievements is hell far to compare of Floyd. As far as I know Ali never knew the word duck, graciously accept defeats, learn, and greatly bounce back. Floyd already cries like a kid when booed from a fight, how much can he accept one lose? Ali is likable when playing villain, Floyd is pure dick. :-(

    Speak english Pit, hard to understand you're babble

    try to reassure tht Floyd won't win????

    Look, Floyd says he's the greatest, all we ask is that he prove it. Beating PAc will not prove that he's th greatest, will it?
