    Gotta love it, if for no other reason than Ali would say **** like this all the time about fighters whether they were retired or not, and it was viewed almost in a romantic fashion because it was him saying it.

    Floyd says things about 100x more tame than Ali used to, and now it's just another reason for people to hate him. :lol:

    Mayweather is becoming more an more deluded about himself and his accomplishments. I think it shows a lack of focus as he thinks he is so naturally amazing, and Marquez could really exploit this along with the 2 year lay off. The more i think about it the more i think Marquez will create one of the biggest upsets in boxing history. Come on Marquez, im rooting for you!:good

    I understand what hes saying. If you ask me who was the more complete boxer, I would say Mayweather. If you ask me who has done more then its obvisously ALi. I like how he said different eras, thats what makes his quote not so ludacris

    ?

    Sorry but Floyd just wants to say he's like Ali without facing the type of dangerous opponents that Ali did.

    Im a big floyd fan but im an even bigger Ali fan as Ali is the goat. Mayweather cant compare himself to Ali period. Mayweather technically better..yes..but as a fighter? Never. We will never see another Ali but we will see another Mayweather.

    If Floyd permantly retires undefeated,I can't wait to see the thread,"who's greater,Calzaghe or Mayweather?"Or even,"who's the greater cherrypicker,Joe or floyd?"Or how about the wind up thread,"Mayweather the greatest of all time,better than Robinson or Armstrong."Could anyone imagine the vitriol,especially between the Yanks and the Brits?Whoaaahh.

    I dont know about another Mayweather. were talking 5 weight classes with 6 titles undefeated, who says when he calls it done for sure, he doesnt have 10 titles 6 weight classes?? Trust me, Mayweather is no ALI, but I dont know if we'll ever see another Mayweather

    as much as I think Ali is HIGHLY OVERRATED... Floyd needs to shut the **** up. Its to late for his legacy to come close to Ali's.

    If Floyd was from Ali's era and started talking **** like this, Ali would of slapped his little punk ass.
