Who defeated more world champions Floyd or Ali?

I was wondering this today. I know both men fought their fair share of world champions. But who fought more past/current champions? Floyd Mayweather or Mohammad Ali? Floyd beat champions on the way out and on the downside of their career.. guys off layoffs and out weighed.. No comparison

Just for the record....it's Muhammad Ali,not Mohammad

No Ali is the goat. Floyd is TBE :usa2: Hanz aren't they the same thing? :thinking: And Ali isn't GOAT nor is Mayweather "TBE"

As soon as multiple belts started happening stats like this became irrelevant comparing over eras.

world champions? alas...victor ortiz

Is Floyd the GOAT in your opinion, Hanz? No Ali is the goat. Floyd is TBE :usa2:

On Ali's era there was only the WBC.... Now we have "4" main organizations. Anyways, Prime George Foreman and Prime Frazier > Floyd's Resume You are talking about arguably the best ever against floyd who is top 100 ATG No contest......

It's kind of unfair to compare, now that we are at a time in the sport when belts are handed out like confetti.

ya'll DKSAB Mayweather undefeated and Ali wasnt. Prime Ali only lost to Joe Frazier..a fighter who usually cracks most heavy ATG TOP ten lists..Ali was a better puncher than Mayweather and had the speed of a lightweight..

Hard to say. A reporter said Chavez and Mayweather were tied but that was quite a few years ago but I'm sure after research that wasn't correct. But I forget. That was past/past/future world champions by the way. Box rec says jcc is 18-4

You literally cannot compare them, not out of fairness to Ali, just because there's no formula for it. The number of champions has dramatically increased and we don't know who to consider real or fake. It's like comparing a bank account in the '80s to one now without subtracting 70% for inflation. Your "winner" would just be an meaningless number.

I was wondering this today. I know both men fought their fair share of world champions. But who fought more past/current champions? Floyd Mayweather or Mohammad Ali? Feel like making this kind of comparison is a bit apples and oranges. Much of his career was absent of the alphabet soup of titles we have nowadays. He beat several opponents that would easily crush today's heavyweights outside of Klitschko. The numbers are probably pretty close, I don't know them offhand, but the quality is a bit onesided a discussion. Mayweather's resume is great, and probably would have only been even better in a different era.

Let's just focus on the terrible pbc ratings we got today.lol

Floyd has beaten the most world champions IN THE HISTORY OF BOXING. In an era of the worst "world champions." You guys are like ****in sheep

How about.. I don't care...lol

Can't fairly compare. World champions reproduce like rabbits nowadays. I've probably punched out some guy who was a boxing world champion without knowing it. Not to mention the fact that Ali and his opponents only have one weight division title to pass around. Not like Ali could have stepped up and fought in a higher weight class lol
