    I think Money May's rez is clearly superior. May would've got in Ali's azz. Different times back then. Fighters werent as good. May would've been Heavyweight champ.

    Even Robinson's resume don't compare to Ali's. No ones does and no fighters ever will.

    DLH is not in the running to be Mayweather's best opponent.

    Ali never took a backward step,and was in an Era of the Greatest Heavyweight fighters we have ever seen,also take into account he spent 3 yeras of his prime in exile where he was not allowed to Fight,he was the Greatest and he proved it against the best constantly,If Ali was Mayweather he would have fought Pac already,and theres the Big diference.!!!!

    Floyd is undefeated and has legendary names like Castillo and Corrales on his res. It's close but Floyd edges it.

    If Floyd beats Pac,Sergio then maybe another top contender it can rival Ali's IMO.... Floyd Patterson was in his 20th year when he fought Ali,Ken Norton was said to have beaten him but Ali got the gift decision,and also has wins vs them but also has a loss vs Spinks and Frazier..

    Big difference between the two fighters.

    Ali fought the best.

    Floyd avoided the best.

    You are clueless. Floyd Patterson was any where from 28 to 30 years old when he fought Ali the first time in 1965(he was still a top contender) and the second time being in 1972(he was over the hill). Ken Norton gave Ali the most trouble in his career even though Ali won their trilogy 2-1, their third bout is controversial but that does not mean Norton won it. If thats all you have against Ali you better go to the drawing board again. In that case why don't we talk about the gift decisions Floyd got vs DLH and Castillo? Everyone has their share of controversial decisions.

    The fact that Ali beat Frazier(2x) and Foreman completely surpasses anything Floyd will accomplish.

    PS I also doubt Floyd will ever summon enough guts to face Martinez. Although I hope Floyd defeats Pacquiao if they ever fight.
