RING Magazine: "Mayweather Doesn't Crack the Top 25 Greatest Ever"

The bird in your avatar on the other hand........:wank:

Yeah I thought the same, but it turns out that they're fake.

Some guys don't mind, but it kinda puts me off a bit.

I still would, obviously :wank:

[MELLY-MEL...]

i have him at or about top 25, he can go to 20, or 30 imo. either way.

[El Dominicano]

How many people have boxed in history? How can you act like being anywhere in the top 50 or even the top 250 of all time is not special. Just think about how old boxing is and how many people have laced up the gloves.

He is a top 30 dude for me and I rate him above Roy Jones as the best guy that was around while i really followed boxing. The only arguments you can make against Floyd are usually bull**** hearsay or opinions that carry little weight. You can say he did not clear out division but he was a division climber after 130 and that is special also when you take into account how he did above his original weight.

Thats what I'm saying.

So, DLH>>>everyone else?

He won titles in more divisions than anyone in history.

If he stuck around and cleaned out WW then he would be IMO. But.... he didn't. Seriously, he was only like 3 or 4 fights away from accomplishing this...

Exactly.

Pretty much nailed it right there.

[postmortem]

1. I don't know why anyone would consider this an insult, mayweather ended his career early so he is not listed with the people who continued to fight well past their prime. They are not saying he is not one of the best fighters they are saying he not in with the greatest ever because he prematurely ended his career thus his legacy is not what it could have been.

2. This he didn't clean out a division is garbage because if he had you would have claimed he stayed in a weak division beating up nobodys. See what is said about bernard, joe, and roy, they constantly get their resume's questioned because they did stay and clean out a division.

[Sweet Pea 50]

Ehh, got say I agree with The Ring on this one. He had a chance. ****, Mayweather STILL does. It's there for him to break into the the top 15, if he came back. If he stays retired, then I can see what they are saying.

HAHAHA dude can you read? I laid out why I thought Floyd was great, it is a mixture of everything he did over his whole career, not one aspect. Could he have done more sure, but he would be higher then top 30. If what Floyd did was not impressive (career wise) then basically everybody in boxing today is terrible by your standards.

Think whatever way though just understand in my eyes your opinion on boxing is worth less then bat guano, to me anyways.
