Actually you said the only fighter who could beat 168 Roy was Prime SRR. First off Ray never fought at 168 he damn sure aint fought anybody remotely close to RJJ at 160 or any weight class for that matter. Roy would massacre SRR!
The fact that you still spit that Floyd avoided A level guys garbage when it's been proven bullshyt time and again is just weak. "Prime" Duran could'nt hold Floyd's jock strap much less KO him!
Who the fukk has Duran beat to be top 8 all time? Outside of SRL fighting a dummy fight he got beaten(pretty clearly at that) by damn near if not every all time great he ever fought. His resume at at 135 is a fukking joke damn near JCC/SRR (first, what... 70 or so fights weak) breh!
Respectfully bro, I disagree with you. I'm gonna be clearer on my opinion- the only person who stands a chance of beating prime RJJ is SRR. And that's because he's the GOAT. Now if you don't agree with that, you're in the MINORITY. Majority of the media and boxing scribes recognize SRR as the GOAT. Btw, I should mention RJJ is my favorite boxer and the GOAT that I've ever seen actively compete.
Secondly, if you don't have Duran in your top 6-8 again you're in the MINORITY. THE majority of boxing scribes, media and journalists have Duran ranked that highly. And that's solely predicated on his work as a lightweight. Then you add on the fact that he moved up to welterweight and beat SRL. That's the icing on the cake.
Everything I'm saying is conventional opinion bro, which means it's shared by the majority of those who are students of the game and cover the sport presently. Now since you believe the opposite, which is fine, you're gonna need to make a more compelling argument than what you've done thus far.
FMJ has a boxrec page son, so the info is out there and factual. He didn't fight Cotto, Mosley, DeLaHoya, Pacquiao, Marquez, Gatti in their primes. And those guys are all hall of famers. He also avoided prime versions of Margarito, Paul Williams, Kostya Zu (however you spell it).
Floyd Mayweather isn't as great as you think he is bro. Nor is he considered as great by the boxing world. This is the same guy who forced Maidana to wear different gloves out of fear of his power, made Marquez agree to 145 catch weight and then famously showed up over the weight with his penalty check in hand, had Haymon pay sparring partners to NOT work with Pacquiao to prevent him from being prepared, took an illegal amount of IV fluids before the fight and paid USADA for a therapeutic exemption afterwards, has failed I believe 6 drug tests himself and got those exemptions for all of them, turned down fighting Margarito for 8 mil and instead fought Carlos "Tata" Baldomir for $8,000,001.
Duran will ALWAYS be ranked higher than Floyd. He was yesterday, he is today, and guess what? If you Google who's better or ranked higher tomorrow it's gonna say Duran. He's far and wide a more universally recognized and respect champ then FMJ ever was or could be.
