Um thats the only way that Floyd would have a shot to beat Hearns..he cant fight his long ass from the outside he would have to fight him in the pocket.

Thats too dangerous for Floyd to fight Hearns from the outside...Hearns would just set him up with left jabs..then right hand booms that Floyd wouldnt bea able to see.

Floyd would have to fight Hearns on the inside and pot shot from ghe outside at times.

He couldnt beat Tommy Hearns kid! that is just ****ing fact, look if Floyd Mayweather was affraid to step inside with Baldimor who couldnt break and eggshell with a bat, what makes you think he will stay inside with Tommy?

You didn't watch that fight, I can tell by your post that you are going by word of mouth.

You know what pisses me off?

Where in the %$&# is Duran?

I left out Duran, SRR, and Tyson....I can only have 4 pics in the sig.

Why would Mayweather take any risks against Baldmir when he had a messed up hand.....when a fight that would change his life forever with Oscar was on the line???

Staying inside is the only way Floyd could beat Hearns....Floyd picks off shots in the pocket better then any fighter I seen since Sweat pea and James Toney.

Robinson had the same record that Floyd does in his first 40 fights. Lets see how Mayweather holds up after 200 fight and in his mid 40's. To be honest, the comparison is insulting.

I agree and Im insulted by this. I wouldnt put him ahead of Leanard let alone Robinson. Oscar doesnt equal Haglar. Judah doesnt equal Hearns and Hatton doesnt equal Duran!

Seeing as there's been some discussion about this recently, I'd be interested to know how many of you think Floyd Mayweather Jr deserves to be called greater than Sugar Ray Robinson. Certain posters here claim Floyd is a better fighter. Floyd himself claimed he is better, I believe.

Anyone who knows a little about boxing history will probably know already that Ray is considered the greatest of all time. His achievements include over 200 pro fights from lightweight to light heavyweight over a span of 26 years. 175 wins (108 by KO), 19 losses, 6 draws. As an amateur, he had 85 fights (69 KO's), and 40 first round KO's.

The pound for pound rankings were created because of Sugar Ray. Muhammed Ali, Sugar Ray Leonard, Joe Louis, and The Ring magazine ranked Robinson as the greatest P4P fighter of all time.

Robinson died in poverty in 1989.


I shouldn't need to break down Mayweather's record. If you are of the opinion that Floyd is better than Sugar Ray, you'll already know why you rank him higher. Floyd's record is 39-0, which you know already.

Mayweather Jr recently earned 20 million dollars for a wrestling match and continues to live in luxury.


This thread/poll is not made in disrespect of Floyd or any of his fans. I respect all reasonable opinions, so let's keep it clean. I have a genuine interest to know how many would rate Mayweather higher than Robinson.

Sugar Ray hands down. I cannot believe that anybody could even consider PBF as the pound-for-pound all-time-greatest fighter. Maybe in 10 years if he retires 80-0.
