    I'd say Rocky, because he wasn't nearly as gifted, and he was a small guy for the weight class he fought in.

    But the fact that Floyd didn't overcome the same adversity, is a testament to his great skills. So by picking Rocky, I'm giving a huge amount of credit to Floyd.

    Floyd ranks far higher on the ATG lists and is a far better fighter

    Why does it have to be a great pic, he already beat all the fighters they say is/was great, let him actually "pick" a fight for a change

    Yes, which is why I think it was harder for Rocky to get to 49-0.

    Rocky was limited skill-wise, and he was only 5'10, weighing in the 180's. So he was up against it.

    One guy who beat the F UCK outta his opposition vs one guy who's OWN FATHER called him a coward on LIVE TV.

    You be the judge. Let's be realistic.

    Floyd "won" the boxing match, even though Pacquaio outlanded his ass, hurt him more times, and beat Floyd up more.

    Marciano won the FIGHT cuz the mother ****er was ****ed up on the ground. Simple.

    I think you've gone off course.

    The question wasn't who do you rate higher or respect more, it was who came through more adversity? Personally, I think that was Rocky. And in picking Rocky, it's paying Floyd a huge compliment.

    Either youre lying or just ignorant about Mayweather's career. Mayweather wasnt even close to being a big draw until fought DLH when he was 30yrs old. Before that he was promoted by Bob Arum only had 1 PPV in his first 35 fights with Arum against Gatti and he was the B-Side. He was desperately calling out DLH and Mosley because he wasnted big money fights and wanted to become a PPV star while they wanted nothing to do woth him. So all of that pick fights his whole career is a flat out fabrication and falsehood on your part.

    Here is the difference. Floyd would be a NOBODY if it wasn't for his mouth. He wouldn't make ****.

    True Gladiators deserve the money cuz they take the biggest risks. Big risks = big rewards.

    The only risk Floyd is takin is with God by spreadin his ignorance. It's between him and God.

    Marciano didn't have to test God to get to where he was, but he had to leave something in the ring.

    That's a TRUE WARRIOR and TRUE GREATNESS in the same mold of ALI and other greats from the past.

    Look how he fought De La Hoya. "The fight to save boxing" and Floyd ran like a lil bltch.

    Mayweather won the fight, he won the boxing match, he won the rounds, there is no moral victory for Pacquiao, he was nullified, I am a massive fan of them both and I can see one of them dominated the fight. A coward or a pretender wouldn't dominate Manny Pacquiao on potentially the biggest stage in boxing history :lol:

    Except the replay clearly shows that Pac was robbed.

    In addition to that, Pac made the fight and Floyd looked more beat up.

    At the end of the day, this is a fight.

    Ain't nobody tryin to pay to watch a "boxing match" That's some **** you say with a limp wrist.

    You wanna watch a "boxing match" with your limp ass wrist floppin around and ****.

    **** that bull****.

    I ain't tryin to watch two scared mother ****ers play tag.

    He lost that fight and HE SERIOUSLY HARMED THE EARNING POWER OF FUTURE BOXERS because of his NON-FAN FRIENDLY PERFORMANCE.

    TOTAL FAILURE for the sport of boxing.

    You think people were like, **** that Marciano fight.

    Hell no.

    People were like damn, THAT MOTHER ****ER WHUPPED THAT MOTHER ****ERS ASS!!!!

    DAMN, THAT WAS A SERIOUS ASS FIGHT.

    BOTH THOSE MOTHER ****ERS CAME TO KILL EACHOTHER!!!
