Are some people seriously rating Floyd Mayweather as the best WW ever?

I agree. As skilled as Floyd is I think the best welter matchups of his time and the ones I will remember as the definitive fights are Margarito/Williams and Margarito/Cotto.

 

Of the three I have to disagree in that I think Cotto is better than Shane. He won when it came to boxing. When looking at it at a different angle, Margarito is the outlier of the group, as Cotto was able to take Shane's shots, but not Margo's;

but it has been often presented that Shane power is on a greater level than Margarito? :think

 

I don't consider myself a Floyd hater but I consider myself a boxing fan cheated out of many fights because Floyd won't take them. I wish DLH never gave Floyd the fight. I bet Floyd would have fought EVERYONE had that fight never happened.

 

The highlighted typo makes it hard to understand your post fully.

 

As far as I am concerned all responses that are not maniacal laughter or hyperbolic emoticons, are comical.

 

I never heard anyone claim mayweather is a top 10 ATG WW.

 

this!

 

Then again, how many of Whitaker, Oscar, Tito, Mosley, Forrest and Quartey could we expect Floyd to actually fight, considering he waited for a long time to fight only Mosley and never fought Pacquiao, Tszyu, Williams, Margarito or Cotto??? :huh

 

Corrales - he looked like magic

 

Floyd ain't even the best WW today

 

Oscar wouldn't have broke PPV records if he didn't give Floyd the fight.

Another Blaxican boxer.:thumbsup

 

You do know that Mayweather "OFFER'D" a 4-5 fight contract of Margarito, Cotto, Hatton, De La Hoya to Arum and was turned down right?

This was 17 days after the Judah fight.

 

who's better today? I honestly want to know who think is better than him TODAY at WW.

Also this whole thread is bullshyt i have not seen ONE person say Floyd is top ten WW alltime let alone ever!

Again where the hell is this comming from who the hell said this...and ANY resepctable fan of boxing would know that its bullshyt and wouldnt need for it to be confirmed for him by this gobbage as thread.

 

Answer...None.

Pac's won lineal titles in 4 separate divsions (Flyweight, Featherweight, Jr. Lightweight, and Jr. Welterweight).

Anyone who buys into the idea that Pac should be considered a lightweight champion because he defeated the weakest of the three titleholders in David Diaz, or jr. middleweight champion because the WBC created a new belt as a prize for the occasions deserves to be treated with equal amounts of contempt and pity.
