Mayweather claims he is better than Muhammad Ali

[NBAplayoffs2001]

I pray someone KO's him in the next two years.

[Im so nba'd out]

but he is better.....

[unbreakable]

its true :confusedshrug:

only thing Ali has on mayweather is that ALI NEVER DUCKED ANYONE the way mayweather ducked prime Pacman..

but whatever .. atleast mayweather dismantled maidana and the redhead mexican

[hateraid]

The amount of boxing threads you put out is enough to create it's own forum :lol

Here's a suggestion. Instead of creating a bunch of mediocre boxing threads there is one all purpose boxing thread. Bump it. Get used to it.

[JEFFERSON MONEY]

he no so he better den suga ray robinson or willie pep or jacki johnson so az far az im consurned dats an okay statement ta make

[9erempiree]

Not even close to being on Ali's level. He is the greatest defensive fighter in history though.

I can't respect him when most of his fights are set up by his promotion. Mayweather Promotion has been doing most of his fights for a long time now. So he basically hand picks the opponents. Guys that people never heard of.

Imagine Golden Boy Promotions promoted his fights. They would line him up with some of the toughest boxers today.

[Nick Young]

You really think Ali stands a chance vs Mayweather? The old gramps can hardly walk.

[Hey Yo]

but he is better.....
at domestic violence.

who he aint beat doe? he dun goofed on everyone. makin em look silly bruh.

[ImKobe]

Ali had a better track record and his impact was far greater....

as far as a better boxer than Ali? How could he possibly know? Different eras, different weight class. You put them up against eachother, Ali's 6-3 and boxes at 180-230 pounds, he'd wreck a tiny ass Floyd in the ring, even if Floyd is better on defense, one good punch from Ali and he's going down.

56 wins and 37 Knockouts shit on Floyd's record. Being undefeated is nice, but most of the guys he beat don't stack up amongst all-time greats.

[L.Kizzle]

at domestic violence.
Nope Ali did it first.

[NZStreetBaller]

safely winning all your fights by decision against fighters that in 30 years will not be forgotten is hardly GOAT stuff. mayweather sells himself very well. thats about it. boxing is nearly dead. and the only guy who has a chance against mayweather, he wont fight.

George foreman is 100x scarier then manny. and Ali knock him the fark out.
typical ISH everything is about statistics........

Joe Calzaghe 46 -0
Rocky marciano 49 - 0
Chris John 48 - 0
Jimmy barry 59 - 0

None of these guys are greater then ali.
Weak era??? Yes exactly ali fought the hardest era of HEAVYWEIGHTS.

[BIZARRO]

Mayweather is EASILY my least my favorite athlete in the world today. Without a doubt, the biggest moron in sports. Almost every comment he makes is trash.
Can't stand him.

Only 2 of those guys matter and Chris John lost earlier this year.

[Combat Wombat]

Ali never ducked anyone. He talked the talk and walked the walk. Mayweather has ducked Manny Pacquiao and ,arguably, Antonio Margarito.

Defensively, FMJ is better than Ali but not by a lot. Other than that, I'd say Ali has his number.

[Godzuki]

no great fighter has ever ducked anyone. not even in MMA do champs ever duck people in fighting sports. when they are the best or in legendary status of talk, they really think they're the best generally where they think they're going to go undefeated regardless of opponent. Mayweathers the other way around where he is so worried about his record and losing he ducks. you're a moron if u call that dude a legend.

Besides boxing these days is gay as fukk when the fighters schedule all of their matches. its some stupid shit in this age of sports, but boxing in general is gay as fukk, borderline WWE nowadays. fukk boxing fans - gay, has been mf'ers :pimp:

[DCL]

mayweather can end his career with like 60-0, but he'd still be remembered as chicken shit.

[Im so nba'd out]

I like how people defend someone they never seen fight as the best fighter ever to them....such fakkitry in the world today :facepalm

Foreman and fraizer still overshadow those names. Im not saying floyd aint good. because he is. but hes not better then Ali. Manny doesnt duck anyone :facepalm
Oscar was past his prime and MANNY made oscar look like trash. watch the fight.

Cotto alvarez marquez < liston fraizer foreman by a looooong shot.

Mosley was a nobody when floyd fought him.

bruh, manny dun faced oscar 2 years after. if he was washed up against floyd, dude was nothin when he stepped up to manny. floyd dun fought him at 154lbs, and manny made dude cut to 147lbs. you aint gettin lighter as you get older in boxin bruh. oscar had no shot at manny at 147lbs.

ali aint never beat fraizer in his prime bruh. i aint even know why you bringin his name up.

manny aint duck no one? who floyd duckin then? he aint scared of manny bruh. you trippin thinking he aint wanna fight manny when marquez dun whooped on him 4 times. he finally knock his ass out so he get the actual win this time. marquez just a poor mans floyd, and he beat mannys ass 4 times.

and aint floyds fault mosley was old as dirt when they fought. shane shouldnt have been duckin his ass when floyd was younger.

[nathanjizzle]

mayweathers full of himself. what was his most impressive fight? beating a drugged out hatton? a lazy loser of a zab judeh? a washed up mosley and delahoya? dude has always cherry picked his fights thats why hes still undefeated after almost 50 bouts.

I still think madiana got robbed in the first matchup

[32jazz]

I think all of this is part of the Mayweather show. He knows it sells tickets/PPV.


That being said to get in that ring one must have confidence in his abitllities to succed.

Boxing fans is he a better defender than Whitaker?

[DonDadda59]

There's nothing that Floyd does that James Toney didnt do just as well. Only difference was their level of discipline and Toney didnt duck Roy Jones. Defensively you have Whittaker and Locche (and others like Pep) who can be argued as better. I dont even think floyd is a better all around fighter than El Finito Lopez.

Ali's win over Forrman>>>Floyd's entire career.

Canelo, Cotto, Mosley, Hatton, JMM, De La Hoya. Those are guys that he's fought in the last 7 years. No ones heard of them?

Those only guy that no ones heard of is Guerrero and to an extent before the beat Broner was Maidana.

Hugging and clinching literally for the whole 1st half of the fight :facepalm

would have got him disqualified after getting a few points deducted if he was fighting past the 90's.

Who cares how he did it... He did it. He could've come up with a thousand different excuses mayweather style to avoid the fight. But when they asked him, rightfully so, if he was scared his response was 'scared of what?... I'm gonna show him and all of you just how great I am.'

Ali was a 3-1 betting underdog and the rumble in the jungle is one of the biggest upsets in boxing history. Meanwhile Floyd wouldn't even get in there with Margarito. He TBE doe :yaohappy:

[rezznor]

He's now defending ray rice. If anyone is an expert on domestic violence it's mayweather... :oldlol:

Broner seems to agree with Floyd:

i'll bite :D

canelo - beat nobody before floyd
cotto - people said he was washed up before he fought pac
mosley - washed up
hatton - lol
JMM - legit lightweight who fought at ww against floyd, and floyd cheated on the scales
dela hoya - washed up

best fighters he fought in his last 10 fights were mosley, cotto, JMM. mosley was a a legit threat when they fought but still past his prime & inactive.

[SexSymbol]

There's at least 10-15 boxers that are/were better than Floyd

[Orlando Magic]

There's at least 10-15 boxers that are/were better than Floyd

I dunno about 10-15 but there were more than a few, yeah.

[SexSymbol]

I dunno about 10-15 but there were more than a few, yeah.
I'd even take Roy Jones Jr. over him
