    So what you're saying is that it's crazy to call Floyd TBE because SRR, Ali, SRL...ect is better than him, but if Pac beat him, Pac would be better than those guys? You can't blast him for saying it then if he lose, he has to call someone else that even though people never right he was TBE...

    Floyd is not fit to hold SRR jock strap. Ray Robinson was the greatest. Floyd is nowhere near his level.

    that's not what he's saying, and i suspect you know so full well.

    floyd is right - you need a brain to be brainwashed.

    the comments are somewhat idiotic considering ray robinson was so great, wasn't he like 100+-1 at one point?

    i will say though, that i know where Floyd is coming from. There is no proof that ray robinson was a better fighter, it's impossible to prove, it's all opinion. I think he was but that's my opinion

    I have Mayweather around 30 or so on my atg list. However, if he truly believes that he is better than Ali and Robinson, so what? I personally think he is saying this stuff to get the haters riled up and promote the fight but if he really believes he is the best ever, more power to him.

    What doesn't make sense? If you are at the highest level, you believe you are the greatest ever. Nobody before you is better, and on top of that, you believe that you can always be better. That's the mentality of a winner, of each and every one of the best fighters ever. Muhammad Ali did this same ****, said he was greater than every boxer who came before him. You have to think like that.

    People seem to think that Floyd is talking about RANKINGS, trying to use some kind of idiotic logic to say that Floyd thinks his opponents are all time greats. He's saying that, skillwise, he's the best to ever do it. No boxer cares about being on an alltime rankings list because who gives a **** about lists? They want to be recognized for their skills because that's what they can control, that's what they can display, that's what they can train. You can't train a better opponent.

    People are ****ing dumb.

    Muhammad Ali was the best boxer I have ever seen he really lived up to his title THE GREATEST!!!!!!!
    This narcissistic clown is not fit to be named in the same sentence as Ali.
    He is not even an ATG. ATG's aren't cowards, they fight all comers winner take all. They don't need biased Commissions & officials to ensure them victory

    I had a past-prime DLH losing to Floyd by a couple of rounds, which is consistent with the judges. I can only think a younger, faster DLH would have done better. Would not be an easy win for either.

    The main reason I have DLH above Floyd is the level of competition. I'm one of those who believes this is an average era in boxing and that prejudices the standing of Floyd, Manny and Wlad on my list. You can argue my logic is flawed and it very well may be. IMHO greatness can only be measured by the real opposition faced and when (near their prime). Floyd, Pac and Wlad may never get the credit they truly deserve because of their birth dates.

    Mayweather really is unbelievably ignorant.

    Let's see what he does for cash after he's gambled it all away and has to come back. I'll bet it's laying on the ropes taking punishment.

    He has a point about Ali.
    He's not as great as Robinson in any way shape or form.
