    Pac's is better than Void's. Hell, Void said he was superior to Ali also.

    Some gibberish about why would he not consider himself the best.

    "Am I better than Muhammad Ali? Yes."
    "Am I better than Sugar Ray Robinson? Yes."

    Well its kinda hard not to sometimes.

    I mean SRR was like 128-1 at one time? And that one loss, being from a great but much bigger fighter at the time? That alone makes SRR alot more impressive than any fighter I've ever watch easily.

    110 of those wins came against bums. Not blaming SRR for that, but that was a different era. I have no doubt that If Mayweather fought the same level of competition P4P he would be 128-1 or 129-0

    SRR fought once a month, sometimes days after one fight to another. It boggles how a fighter could do that today.

    Then again, Mayweather could probably handle a Gatti esq fighter a week.

    :lol:

    Well what gets me is the fact that, yea back then, the majority of the twice a month fights were against bums, but no one stops to think that 1 in 10 of those "bums" is gonna give the fight of his life, mtagwa vs lopez style.

    So mix that in with fighting 30+ times a year and you have an out of this world record when it stands at 128-1.

    Awesome vid man. Just the opening interview was awesome. For a man who is known as "the greatest of all time" to still be able to give credit where credit is due shows, you can **** talk, but you can also show ****in respect.

    True Skill recognizes True Skill.

    No doubt.

    Did he fought some bums?Of course he did when a guy fights as much as Ray did back then not every fight will be against hall of famers,but we could also say that half of the guys Floyd fought are bums and Floyd only has 40 fights.

    Ray had 30 fights against hall of famers thats almost as many fights as Floyd has.

    Don't you have a lifetime ban bet to be honoring.

    Most of SRR's competition were nobodies. Plain and simple, its not his fault since he was getting paid a few hundred per fight and he had to eat, but he wasn't beating Hall of Famers ever time he laced the gloves up.
