    Inoue's blend of speed, absolutely savage power, pinpoint accuracy, technical brilliance and toughness pose serious problems for any man his size and they will even up at 126, six divisions from the one he started out at. That's how hard he hits. He's an absolute wrecking machine and his power is scary and he's a very clean fighter who has never been caught up in a PED scandal or tried to weaken or cripple opponents at the negotiating table.

    And triple amount of wins vs ranked fighters ?

    Mayweather has 4 wins over ATGs ODLH, JMM, Canelo, Pacquiao.

    And plenty of wins over hall of famers like Cotto, Corrales, etc.

    How many wins does Usyk have over hall of famers or greats ?

    Inoue is now 24-0 in world title bouts, just 2 away from matching Floyd Mayweather Jr.

    I think Fury and Briedis wins are very good wins.

    If Inoue was so great, he wouldn't be knocked down. He kissed the ground by a left hook.

    Almost all the ATGs have been knocked down at some point, just because Inoue has tasted the canvas doesn't mean he isn't a great fighter.

    This isn't an exact science. It's subjective opinion. There is nothing to refute.

    It's not subjective when you have 0 argument to counter factual statistics that heavily favour Mayweather in regards to every category that you use to measure ones resume.

    When one fighter clearly has more world title wins, way more wins over ranked fighters, and way more notable wins thats facts that's not subjective.

    Subjective is a two way argument you haven't countered diddly squat to any of my points so it isn't "subjective".

    All you've done is make a baseless claim with no argument that's the truth of it.

    So you think Gassiev, Fury, Huck, bellew etc are some ATG fighters? Lol

    Floyd has at least one ATG on his resume and many hof guys

    How many ATG does usyk have? Aj, Fury? Lol

    The manny fight was late, but Floyd himself was old and manny wasn't crying from the rooftops either those years when asked about Floyd. He always replied "ask my promoter"

    Yes but not great
    Fury had to climb of the deck to fight dirty to beat cunningham

    Fury who lost to mcdermott?
    Fury who lost to an mma guy making his debut?
    Fury who bottled wlad rematch and Aj?

    I already told you Mayweather has more title defenses than Usyk. That doesn't mean he has a better resume.

    "Almost" was the key word.

    But he has beaten more great/very good fighters, so how is it not better?

    I'm not sure about that. Most of Mayweather's toughest opponents were many years from their signature victory. Take for example Pacquiao. His signature win was in 2003 and Mayweather fought him in 2015.
