in terms of boxing ability mayweather is without doubt the best in this era but floyd needs to beat pacquiao and beat martinez at 160 for the wbc middleweight lineal belt to be legendary like sugar ray robinsion

Originally posted by Bengali Boxer View Postthe idea that nobody would ever beat or be better then robinsion is outrageous people think there is something honorable or traditional about the greatness of old fighters but remember todays boxers are bigger stronger faster and smarter the skills and styles back then won't work in this era so it's not crazy to rank mayweather along with him in terms of boxing ability
I mean I guess that could hold true for HW's. Seeing that back in the day the top HW's rareley weight more than 225 pounds. While now is rare to see a top HW who weighs less then 225 pounds.
But, back then a WW weighed 147, today a WW weights 147. Where is the bigger and stronger coming from?
I have not seen a faster fighter yet then Camacho or Taylor. so how are fighters from today faster?
And, honestly can't really say that Floyd was faster than SRR, maybe had better reflexes I give you that. But, SRR had very good speed.
