Is Floyd Mayweather really a great fighter?

most likely the best comment on here

 

nah....you just need more seasoning in discerning their answers .....if they are serious or not. :good

 

look at this shitty poll results

 

Its not public, so Im sure people Voted "no" just to troll.. not me though :smooch

 

if you would have made it public, I would have been more honest in who I voted for.

 

I respect BBallchump's opinions on the forum normally and I do now.. But to me, Floyd is great... skilled.. talented and p4p more skilled than Pac... and would beat Pac if they fought in my opinion.. but Floyd is not an ATG yet.. maybe in the futre we may consider him as one.. but if he stays retired, he wouldn't be considered an ATG by many for the next few years.. much lik Lennox Lewis... so I'd say yes on great.. no on ATG...

 

Thanks man, but I got what you saying and I'm not even arguing that he's an atg. they're saying he's not a great fighter period. I know some may be voting wrong because of the private poll, but I don't see how Floyd can't be classified as a great fighter in everybody's book.

Maybe I'm not sure what a great fighter is. I think Sergio Martinez is a great fighter. Am I wrong?

 

Great is the highest compliment in boxing.

Roberto Duran, Sugar Ray Leonard and Ali were great.

Floyd Mayweather Jr. is clearly not in their level therefore he is not great, he is good but he is not great.

 

i think your confusing All Time Great with being just a Great Fighter.

 

the same can be applied 2 manny atsch

 

This thread makes perfect sense...in 1998. Of course, now it just seems ****ing stupid.

 

Well the all time great list is just an opinionated mythical pound for pound list. The title asks if he's a great fighter.

 

so he is not a great fighter?

so what is he in your terms?

 

exactly this makes no ****ing sense :-(
when people watch Floyd fight, do they not think, "damn that's a great fighter"

 

A simple question deserves a simple answer.......yes!
