    Mosley in his prime was better than Mayweather. That's why Mayweather avoided Shane until he was age 40.

    Umm yeah… I’m gonna go ahead and add you to the ignore list buddy.. You boxingIQ in minuscule at best.. I love Errol Spence but to say he’s superior to Oscar, Tito and Mosley when he’s 31 and stalling the one pickem fight in the division for him. Oscar didn’t try to age Tito or Mosley out and I’m not even an Oscar fan.

    WTF? Floyd never fougt anyone as big as Hagler or who had a jab as good or as big as Hagler`s or Hearns, nor has he ever faced power like that, Duran would have battered Floyd, I`d pick Floyd v Leonard though, I feel Ray`s power won him his fight v Benitez but Floyd didn`t have that kind of power so would lost to Benitez, Floyd was just a boring, quick spoiling counter-puncher.

    When he fights someone elite give me a call. He passes the eye test but as I always say you can't gauge properly until they fight other elites.
    It really is as simple as that.

    It needs to happen as if it turns into a May v Pac then they won't be getting a penny from me.
    I'm hoping if Spence gets through Ugas it should be on. I don't think Crawford has anyone lined up yet. let's hope they stop fannying around and get it done asap.

    He has not done anything to demonstrate that he's as good as anybody you mentioned in the OP.

    He may be better than he has seemed, but he needs to fight some better competition so we can see where to place him.

    A bout with Spence would be a good start.

    I would say that Gamboa and Porter are in the same class as Ike. Ask yourself this, could you see Ike being competitive against Spence and Crawford? I think not? Again, he was stopped by Fernando Vargas who a level below Crawford, Thurman, Spence, Ennis

    Quartey wasnt stopped by Vargas. But i do think he would be very competitive against todays crop of welterweights. Ike was a very underrated fighter who doesnt get enough credit for his technical ability and great bazooka jab.

    Dude this generation of welters is weak af Oscar is a 5/6- division champ, Mosley a 3 division champ, Tito went from welter-middle, Vargas at 22/23 was fighting elite level comp… I like Spence but most of these so called big fights should have been step up fights done YEARS ago it’s 2022 we still waiting for a 35 yr old Crawford to have a GREAT win and we still waiting for a 31 yr old Spence to unify titles.
    Thurman entire career is based off of faking injuries and running away from rematches non fights he arguably lost and got boo’d out the ring at the end of stalling up the division.

    I’m fairly confident Tito will knock out both Spence and Crawford.
    And Oscar will decision Spence and Crawford.
