    Mayweather is undefeated at 5 weight classes. Fought the best at 130,135,147 and 154. All were ranked as ring number one at the time. Most of his fights, pretty much all. Mayweather is the smaller guy yet still wins. The greatest 130 fighter of all time. Without doubt the most skilled boxer of all time
    My brother Flawed speaks the truth, these whiteys don't know what a great fighter is. The best they could come up with is Rocky Ballsboa.

      Defining all-time-greatness is subjective to say say the least. I think it would be ATG in the eye of the beholder as it could be argued that there might not even be 100 ATG fighters as well as it could be said that there's 500.

            I can appreciate the fact that he ranks as a top 100 ATG and is number one at his weightclass.... Not a fan tho....

              The exact reason why I don't put him on the same level as the Fab 4. When he moved up in weight he did not even try to challenge the top level of competition. I am a full-blown Floyd Mayweather Jr. hater, but I am not ******, or completely blind.

                It's so sad that one of the best fighters I've ever seen cannot be considered an ATG.
                It depends on who you consider an all-time great or not.

                I agree that he is one of the most skilled fighters there was but he could've done so much more in my opinion.

                    That was about the best defensive fighter of all time, not skill

                      Mayweather pales in comparison to Joe The Magnificent Calzaghe.
