Attention Mayweather fans.......

[ßringer]

well i can respect your opinion and im glad you're not a jackass like some of the other posters on this board

I stick to my guns and tell the truth how I see it always. Mayweather is a damn great fighter and I doubt anybody could argue that otherwise, intelligently at least. I respect your opinion as well, and I'm glad you respect mine. Not all of us here are pure haters, it's just become that way recently. I remember when this place had active intelligent conversation going all the time. Somehow it got lost along the way.

I see that ******ed little ****face ran away with his tail tucked between his legs, good riddance. Anyways, I'm going to sleep now and I'll check out all the replies and respond as best I can in the morning.

I see the guy in the top 100 of all time.. top ten nah, twenty nah, maybe some day..

When I hear ALL TIME GREAT though, I think of the top 10 or 20 boxers..
The rest are still legends but not greats..

It depends on what you think the meaning of the word is..
How do you describe all time great status?

how can oscar be considered one of the greatest when he lost most of his big fights floyd has never lost at all and besides shane mosley he has fought every other big name boxer in his division hatton cotto and williams just became big name fighters. two or three years ago nobody would of wanted to see floyd and williams fight

[squealpiggy]

you are a hater what other 130lb fighter is fighting 160lbers like oscar and baldomir. please name one in my lifetime

The "owned" Gif automatically makes the guy who uses it the loser in any argument.

Floyd is a great fighter, but there's a difference between a great fighter and an all-time great fighter.

Floyd's career isn't finished, but at the moment he's not an all-time great.

[DIOS DOMINICANO]

The reason why so many of us here on boxingscene.com do not label Floyd Mayweather Jr. as an all time great is because most of us have been watching this sport for more than 2-3 years.

I have NO PROBLEM with someone withholding the label of "great" from PBF.

But when people say that "PBF has a boring style", then I DO KNOW that you have been watching boxing for only two years.

Because if you had actually SEEN any fights before Baldomir or "The World Awaits", you would know that PBF was a smart aggressor with a very good KO rate.

So, actually, I just make a mental note of the people who say that. It lets me know who the newbies are to the sport.

This type of **** doesn't get my hater label... it's the, "WTF is Floyd doing on the P4P lists, he hasn't fought anyone!!11" **** that gets the hater label.

I think right now Floyd is an all time great, but only from the standpoint of ability, certainly not accomplishment.

being p4p is based off of ability fetishes from those who rate more than accomplishment, but with those combined Floyd has made and earned #1 p4p. That doesnt make you an all time great though, they are two seperate things.

well buddie, im 21 in may and ive been watchin boxing since i was about 5? so thats alot more than 3 years, so i must be a vet like you? lol anyway the comment you made sayin

unless he beats Hatton, Cotto, Mosley and Williams there's no way to make an argument for him being an all time great.

Would there for make me think that you are saying that Hatton, Cotto, Mosley and Williams are all-time greats?

Most of my friends watch boxing and have been since they were kids. None of them find Mayweather entertaining....i dont know anyone who could call his fights exciting. Yes he rolls and slips punches and counters, but that gets boring after 5 minutes.

i want to see guts, determination, skill, power, aggression....not just shoulder rolls and 12 rounds of boredom.
