Robert Garcia says "Floyd is the greatest fighter of all time"

[Jesus Is Lord]

Every fighter chooses money over legacy fights. Wouldn't you?

Most of the time legacy fights=$$$$, unless you're fighting some tomato can just to unify for legacy's sake.

Forget Sugar Ray Robinson, how can you say Floyd is greater than Sugar Ray Leonard? Look at how many HOF fighters he beat:

Hector Camacho
Roberto Duran
Thomas Hearns
Marvin Hagler
Wilfred Benitez

That's 5 HOF all time greats he BEAT IN THEIR PRIME. Can anybody name one HOF figher Mayweather has fought in his prime?

he didn't beat Camacho breh

 

[blackzeus]

he didn't beat Camacho breh

My bad, memory is off, but still, that's still four more prime HOF boxers than Mayweather has fought IMHO.

IDGAF what Bob said... Floyd is not the GOAT nor is he top 5

That's your opinion and that's fine
You obviously have a personal hatred for the guy so I don't expect u to say otherwise
Just understand that's there's a lot of people who think otherwise
And they aren't just stans.


At u suddenly not giving a fukk about what bob Arum has to say

i hate arguments like this
A fighter can not be penalized because of what era he fought in
Leonard vs Floyd is a very close fight that could go either way

You're right.. im just one man with an opinion. How bout you make a case for Floydie then.. Tell everyone why he's GOAT

He can't be penalized but he can't be glorified either. It's one thing if you want to call Floyd the greatest of his era, and completely another to call him the GOAT. Saying you can't penalize the GOAT because of the era he played in is an oxymoron, because GOAT = Greatest Of All Time. So that would mean Floyd is better than everybody in this era, everybody in SRL's era, in SRR's era, etc. No boxing fan IN THEIR RIGHT MIND would ever speak such foolishness. That would be like you saying Kobe is the GOAT SG, and we can't penalize him (aka tell you you're f*ckin' loco) because of the era he played in

Floyd aint the goat but I have him in my top 5 of all time
Yes he tells everyone hes the best ever I mean if he dont think think it who will?

Just imagine Jordan sonning nikkas left and right and start calling himself the best ever people would have had a fit so im saying look back in 25 years or so ppl will say he might be the goat

So Floydie is to boxing, as is,
Jordan is to basketball..

This your analogy correct?

That was one of my first posts in this thread and it has yet to be made.

So, who are you removing for Floyd Mayweather Jr?

Muhammad Ali, Sugar Ray Robinson, Henry Armstrong, Willie Pep are definite top 4s with Roberto Duran/Joe Louis/Harry Greb are all basically tied for the 5th spot.
