    You have got to be ****ing kidding me, no wonder why i bash you. Gene fullmer has a better resume? His top wins are 3 welterweights, one was way past it when they fought, the other benny paret is a one hit wonder, the other is carmen basilio. You're going to tell me thats more accomplished than what mayweather has done?

    Salvidor sanchez has a better resume, haha based on what. Beating a green azumah, danny lopez and a smaller gomez. Thas a better overall resume than beating 3 p4p fighters and 13 world champs in total. You are becoming anti floyd.

    When you talk about resumes, you bring everything into play. Beating an atg great once and then doing **** all for the rest of ur career , doesnt give you the better overall resume.

    Most people on this board r giving floyd his dues that hes top 25 of all times, this clown doesnt even think hes top 100.

    Looks to me like he didn't say Floyd wasn't top-100 all-time, he simply posted 100 with a better "WINS RESUME" than Floyd. Not overall resume but wins resume.

    It's all about opinions, but I'd say that "green azumah, danny lopez and a smaller gomez" are better than washed-up Gatti, washed up ODLH and smaller Hatton.


    The point we are making isn't that Floyd is not an ATG, but that the jackass who started the thread didn't specify what he meant. That's why I said my list was head-to-head and posted a list full of heavyweights.

    you also forgot to mention i dont know, castillo, corrales, hernandez and judah. You combine all of those wins and his resume easily surpasses sanchez's.

    He listed aaron pryor as a better resume, you have got to be ****ing kidding me. All sweet scientist does is go on boxrec and find anyone that has beat 2 or 3 great fighters, and automatically assumes they have better resumes. he isnt the boxing expert everyone thinks he is.

    There is somthing called depth, more than half of these guys lack real depth in thier resume, something that goofball sweet scientist will never realize.

    I would argue that Hernandez & Judah will be no more remembered in 20 years as Castanon or Ruben Castillo are now. It's all opinion anyway, you aren't wrong and neither am I.

    But that is not the point, and neither is resume depth. The point is that the original poster left it open for us to make our own rules.

    Overall P4P, Floyd is easily in my all-time top-50. But I chose to base my interpretation of "better" on head-to-head at heavyweight with 5oz gloves. Therefore I answered the challenge and I am still eagerly awaiting my $1000.

    Look guys this was a simple exercise to proove that Mayweather is a top 50 p4p all time great which people say he is not.

    Whenever i normally ask those people to say 50 they don't so i added an incentive.

    Fact is nobody did make a list of 50 so it doesn't matter anyway!

    Not since bigtime was posting on this forum, has an individual owned themselves so comprehensively on the general boxing forum.:lol: :rofl

    He lists a thread a with a completely open ended criteria, which is up to the responding person to decide upon the criteria.


    When someone decides upon there own criteria, namely a list of 50 all time great heavyweights who would beat Floyd head to head he then ignores that post, and then specifies his own criteria. He then owns himself further by bringing Hatton into it...:lol: :rofl

    Comprehensive self-ownage even bigtime would be proud of.

    This is your original post. It does not mentioned p4p. In fact the criteria is open ended. You owe the poster who did the top 50 list of head to heads the money.:deal

    :patsch

    paypal could be used to transer 1000 dollars, that isnt the point.


    I wouldnt bet my life on it that someone Ive never met is going to drop 1k into my paypal account for a bet made over the internet on a boxing forum

    I don't. It was the only comeback I could think of. Still bitter from paying 16$ for a beer last year at Heathrow.
