    Floyd Mayweather Junior is not overrated = he is the reatest boxer of all time

    Unefeated

    WBC belt in 5 different weight classes

    Has an amazing CV with wins over Castilo, De la Hoya and Corrales to name a few

    Never been put down (properly)

    Hardly ever gets hit!

    Has never looked in trouble (apart for 10 seconds against Zab Judah)

    Invented the shoulder roll and uses it to amazing effect

    Speed, power through weight classes, never shows fatigue, great chin (I think!) He is the complete package

    The greatest of all time

    lol, greatest of all time... The greatest of all time that isn't exciting at ALL to watch... makes perfect sense... Fact is, the dude takes ZERO chances, in OR out of the ring (picking opponents, that is)

    that he's overrated

    and don't get me wrong, I think he's a very good fighter with an amazing defence, but he's overrated.

    Explain your position. Who has been better than Mayweather since '97? (other than RJJ)

    At 130/135...he was not overrated.....he beat all the top guys pretty convincingly!

    He is overrated at 140/147....as he hasn't faced any of the top guys! (besides an old De La Hoya and Hatton at 147)
