Hear me out for a minute: Floyd would beat Sugar Ray Robinson

please keep typing and exposing yourself for the ******ed, nut-jockey, groupie idiot you really are. :good

 

If he got in the ring with Robinson there is surely a chance, but he can't even get in the ring with Cotto or Margarito, so Robinson is out of the question.

 

It would seem....but unlike any other sport boxing use to be a weekly or monthly event for the top in the sport. At the highest levels of the sport in the golden era of boxing Their skills and craft were on point and extremely sharp given the activity of fighting monthy and somtimes weekly.....even in some cases the same week.

In boxing to stay sharp and at the top of your game activity is Key and Sugar ray was very active. He was also more determined, and just as skilled as Floyd. The one thing Sugar Ray had over Floyd is his ability to not only "BOX"...but Bang and fight as well.

No question FLoyd is great at boxing but to say he would beat The greatest in Boxing is reaching. Would be a competive fight until Floyd had to fight with Ray.

 

Floyd has been hurt a few times and he's been dropped twice...one was b/c of a hurt hand..the other was bc of a very fast and crisp blow by Zab....although he wasn't hurt he was droped. and Corly hurt Floyd.

 

He faught slower fighters but he also faught fighters on his speed level...or damn close to it.

The skill was key to SRR's great career and would be in a mythical match between Floyd and sRR.

 

YES! Just watch some of his fights in the last 5 yrs and you'll see what I'm talking about.

 

True...but in 200+ fights you'd have to face a fair share of bums.....there aren't 200+ elite level boxers out there today. If Floyd faught 200 times for sure he'd have a loss.

 

Floyd Mayweather has been hurt. It's nonsense, saying he hasn't, because it's obvious he was.

Check out the Demarcus Corley fight, round four, and watch him be staggered for a short period (he came back like a champion and won, to his credit). Hell, Zab Judah KNOCKED HIM DOWN, but was not credited with it. That was a clean right hook, Mayweather's glove did touch the canvas. Later he was slightly wobbled by a left from Judah. Again, he fought back and won like a champion, but imagine a murderous puncher like Miguel Cotto landing cleanly, Zab Judah or Demarcus Corley style.

You need skill and speed to land on Mayweather- and power to make it mean something. Sugar Ray Robinson had that, and I say Robinson would knock Mayweather out later in the fight, it would be an awesome fight, but Robinson was truly a boxing artist. Mayweather is as well, but there is definitely a difference in punching power/punch resistance here.

 

On the same token Floyd has looked mediocre against some limited opp....where sugar destroys his limited foes. And if you are indicating that Sugar didn't have good Technique boxing is not something that is easily grasps by you.

 

1- Claim to be the greatest fighter of all time

2 - Put money before his legacy and his fans

3 - Repeatidly claim he has "nothing to prove", despite point 1.

 

LOL! you have to be joking or you are a full time Clown! Funny **** bro. Hatton is a good fighter but he's not a great fighter. He was exposed to be limited although very determined and Floyd dominated and ultimated KO'd the limited hatton...Hatton is no Jake who Ray beat 5 times out of 6 I believe.
