    i dont think shane mosley made it up when he said that mayweather wants to be like him at 135

    im sure Mayweather did have idols, but he makes out he dont

    This statement, along with the rest of your dog**** comment, indicates that you have zero clue what you're talking about.

    Floyd is a pure technician. He abides by the laws of technique at all times.

    RJJ relied solely on speed, power and athleticism. He disregarded technique.

    Their styles are not similar whatsoever.

    Floyd has athleticism and skill

    Roy had peds, a glass jaw and a resume filled with cab drivers

    Yes, comparing who they fought in the 17th fight proves decisively who is better.
