Floyd Mayweather : "I'm better than Sugar Ray Robinson"

he said he was better than ali too.

 

abc ones :rofl

 

You obviously didn't read the quote, you seem to have missed "undisputed".

 

you mean interim or diamond :smoke

 

In an era where there are junior/light weightclasses and four major belts to choose from in all those weight classes....as well as the bs chance to win a title from a guy who lost it in the ring(Judah's IBF title) but the sactioning body just gave it back to him.

There are many accomplishments that can NEVER be taken from SRR by ANYONE

 

You are dead wrong eat Crow

yeah but its gone to ****, this isn't the 80's or 90's,

this is the bling bling diamond belt baby era :happy

 

The IRS filed a lien against Mayweather last year for $6.1 million but the boxer insists he has no problem with the federal tax body.

"Same thing I always say -- If I had a problem with the IRS, they would come take my house," Mayweather said. "They would come take my cars. They haven't taken anything from me.

"Everybody knows this. If the IRS has a problem, they're going to take it from you. They're going to go just like this -- 'I need that.' They're going to put a padlock on it and take it from you. There's no negotiating, they're going to take it from you. I have two houses out here. My other house is a $3 million, $4 million house, whatever number they want to say. So they could take it and get their money."

 

Mayweather has more fairytales then mother goose.

 

I wouldn't take anything lil' Floyd serious right now. 1) he's selling tickets 2) he's got an incredible mental game. If he actually got into the ring with SRR he probably would think he'd win.

We'll see if he becomes more modest with age when he retires for good.

 

Not saying people are not 'entitled' to comment, just saying that perhaps people are misinterpreting. An athlete needs to have that sort of self-confidence. If he started comparing his resume to Ali's and Ray Robinsons, then that would be another story.

 

This post has given so many different and pointless views.

Its an opinion.

You dont have to agree that he is the best there is or was, just please construct decent reasons for and against why he was or wasnt rather than say rubbish like "hes a cherry picker" and "he has no heart" Those lines are very boring and its all Floyd haters seem to be able to muster up!

I am a fan of him, but dont agree with everything he says.

But you have to understand this...... He believes it to be true and until he looses a fight (i dont care who its vs) he will keep believing this. So he needs to be proved wrong in order to belive this.

Personally i dont think there is anyone in the division who can beat him (Again opinion not fact), so you might be hearing it for a long time.

And once again by saying it he has just produced 16 pages (will be more) of people writing about him. Like him or hate him he knows what to say to get people talking, thus keeping his name in the spotlight and generating more money for himself.
