Mayweather has more skills. Most people posting about SRR are just posting from either seeing highlight clips or just hearing the talk through the grapevine. And Mayweather wins by TKO at that. Different era's, Mayweather's much more evolved.
Those who doubt mayweather dont know **** about boxing. People that been in the boxing game for IONS say he is the best they have seen. No, not the best of right now. But the best they have seen since a Ray Leonard. Ask Bob Arum who hates Floyds guts, but still said this.
Ok thats bull****. Mayweather has one attribute (defense) which I would rate above SRR, and thats it. Ray Robinson had a size advantage, power advantage, and was at least just as fast as PBF. His combinations were brutal, he fought with malice intentions. He had one of the best left hooks in the history of boxing. In fact, I can not think of one punch that Mayweather uses better than SRR. SRR's footwork was top notch... do I need to continue. Your a very good poster, and you know boxing, but you hate on old fighters and its out of control.
Who in boxing that has seen him and SRR says that he is better than SRR, because thats what your insinuating by "best they have ever seen". I havent heard a boxing historian rate him H2H, nor in terms of legacy, above SRR, but maybe Im missing something. Please do inform me.
According being the operative word. I favor Robinson, but its not a given. In fact its possible that Mayweather could out point him.
I think, prime Mosley can win vs Floyd at 147 (its possible that even todays Mosley have a chance at beating him). So theres should be no question that SRR can beat him.
Yes, it's true that Robinson never lost a fight at WW. His only losses were at Middleweight and his Light Heavweight title loss to Joey Maxim. Robinson is better than anyone Mayweather has ever fought, and would break him down.
It wouldnt happen:nono Floyd WOULD NOT FACE a Prime 47 SRR....no way in hell If he was somehow forced to? He get a mid round TKO Loss for his effort. SRR was everything Floyd is times at least 3:yep Ohhhh.... how i wish it were POSSIBLE:good :good :good Then the last few will watch the Floyd "fans" turn on themselves like rabid animals.:rofl RAY!!! ALL DAY.....EVERY DAY!!!! Same thing for Ray Leonard as well. The SRL that beat Hearns at 47?? WOULD GUARANTEED KNOCK FLOYD"S LITTLE ASS OUT ON December 8th.:good
ok i agree with the whole evolution vibe u are going off of at times but u seriously act like ray robinson was prehistoric. he fought with modern rules and is not only the greatest 147 fighter ever....he is the best overall fighter ever. his skills are not outdated enough to be beat by floyd. maybe when we as humans evolve to the point of having metal arms will i agree with u. ray robinson ud or late stoppage....floyd does make a fight out of it however.
Being called the best SINCE ray leonard doesnt qualify you to BEAT ray robinson. I rate mayweather the best since probably chavez & whitaker but the best since srl is pushing it a bit. Robinson is arguably the best combination puncher ever & floyd rarely throws a combo, srr was just as fast, hit harder & had a size advantage that wouldnt even be necessary in this fight. SRR is the greatest of all greats & to me this is a mismatch only worthy of viewing to see floyd get his balls smashed in.... no way on gods earth does floyd have a chance in this fight. I would be in deep shock if mayweather even lost close to ray. Robinson KO5 Mayweather jr :good
