ATG: Who Ranks Higher, Floyd Mayweather Jr or Erik Morales?

But why did jones suffer and duran didnt?

 

We know he has at least 5 other accounts because the "What does floored mean?" poll is currently at 836381 to 6.

 

Wrongly, in my opinion.

 

Because Duran, like Morales, had done enough to cement his legacy. He had beaten enough great fighters to not be hurt by losses at the tail end of his career, whereas because Jones didn't beat enough greats, he didn't solidify his legacy.

Morales is like Duran, Mayweather is like Jones.

 

Negative..he is not like Jones by any means..

To say that one fight will define his career...........at this point it may look like that..

Guy is arguabgly the GOAT at 130 and he has 7 titles in 5 weight classes..

Jones can't touch that.

 

EDIT: I'm a twat who can't read

 

Would you say Mayweather's legacy is cemented though?

 

No way and good point:thumbsup

I see what your saying Jack and its a good point for this topic.

Your absolutely right..Floyd has "made his legacy" about his 0...its as if he can still mess all that up..

Good post-I got ya!:good

 

Just when you think Jack couldnt make a dumber post. He goes on a totally one ups himself. Well done jack.


Btw, anyone who doesnt have Roy Jones Jr in their top 25, is a moron. Alot like JAck.

 

jones is arguably the goat at 168 and while floyd jumped 24 pounds from 130 to 154 jones jumped 40+ pounds from 160 to heavy.
Also the most athletically gifted boxer ever and has a better resume than floyd and ranks higher currently.
He doesnt touch that, he beats it:yep

 

Jones beat 2 ATG's. Duran beat 1. What you really mean is, Roy Jones Jr is black. And Duran wasnt. Black fighters get graded on a tougher scale. :good

 

wtf?

 

its nice when michigan and whipdatass arent here because it turns into an acutal boxing debate i agree with jack, altough mayweather is quite likely to surpass morales, morales already has those defining nights against other greats that cement his legacy as it is, mayweather may have already had his defining nights, he may have them still to come, but as jack and sdsfinest have said, he's built his legacy around his "0" so it effectively becomes waiting to see if he can test himself (which im not sure hes done fully yet imo) and keep it

 

You guys flawed logic on Floyd, Morales, and Jones is ****ing warped. You have no sense of boxing history. I shouldn't have come back to this thread. I won't anymore. Carry ON!

 

Morales is #49, just one spot lower than Floyd. That list has Barrera at #43, higher than Morales and Floyd.
