This Why I give Floyd the edge over Sugar Ray Robinson, Floyd would never get knocked through the ropes like Robinson did but someone as basic as Jake Lamotta
And let not pretend like Jake Lamotta was some heavy puncher, he only had 28 percent KO ratio lmao, cats were acting they these dudes are knocking everyone out back then
Also Most of Robinson's fights were 10 round fights, like 90 percent of them, but people assume they were all 15 it goes to show most people have no clue what they are talking about
Also their records are padded with bums
people bring up Locche has the best defensive fighter of all time, but fail to bring up his competition, because the majority of his 136 were not against world class competition in Argentina
and He has a total of 6 champion fights, he won 1 world title, the WBA light welterweight title at the age of 29 against a jap, defended it 5 times before he lost and never became champion again
Also the number one go to arguing is the amount of fight the guys had, and it had it took a lot of them etc
Keep this is mind, the first year Floyd turned pro he fought 11 times that year, so if he fought the same level of comp for three years straight he could've easily been 40-0 at 23 like Canelo, or if he didn't fight for his first world title until 29 like Locche, he would've easily been 100-0 by that time
but the difference was he became a champion a year after turning pro only fighting the world class competition ever since, yet people like to bring his resume into question, it's truly disgusting
Sugar Ray Robinson with all these fights, people don't realize he would have a lot of non title fights inbetween title defenses
Mayweather is 25-0 in Title fights, Ray Robinson is 16-4
Locche is 5-1
Comparing the old era to modern fighters is just a waste of time
