    Comments Thread For: Mike Tyson Feels Mayweather, Right Now, is Better Than All Top Guys

    Former undisputed heavyweight champion Mike Tyson has taken several well-known swipes at Floyd Mayweather in the past. But, during a recent episode of his podcast, Tyson laid praise on the former five division champion. Tyson believes Mayweather, even at 44-years-old, is a better fighter than all of the top guys in the sport.

      What question marks? He was P4P #1 had just easily beaten the guy rated P4P #2, so much so that fans of him started crying about salt water.

        Tyson took too many head punches back in the day, and these days he's just blabbering away nonsense to get attention. That's all this is. A Canelo fight now would embarrass Floydie, and that's just one of many current top fighters who would embarrass him. Floydie had his day, and now he does easy exhibitions for more big piles of cashish. He should either stick with training and/or maybe do a few more exhibitions. That's his level now... nothing more.

          They found an IV in his mansion leading up to the Berto fight, but Floydie being Floydie... the athletic commission wimped out and let it pass. And BTW, he fought an injured Pac who should've just postponed the fight until the shoulder issue healed up. Yes, 7 years ago, he was P4P. Newsflash, friend... 7 years ago isn't today.

            IV's weren't illegal under NSAC rules. Pacquiao said he wasn't injured going into the fight. He said he had the shoulder "injury" since the DLH fight 8 years before. Nobody was on Mayweathers level. People say Canelo has improved and this version would beat that Mayweather, nope. Canelo's foot and hand speed aren't fast enough to catch him.

              Floyd was only beating berto level opponents before retirement he wasn't fighting toughest available so wasn't interesting in being the best even back then

                How did he retire at 37 when he beat Manny Pacquiao at 38?

                  Juicing has been illegal for many many years. I have already said Pac made the mistake of going forward with the fight when he should've gotten the shoulder problem fixed first. It was a huge fight. I hope you're not insinuating he had no injury. Any further discussion is useless as I see I'm conversing with an obvious floydieaholic. Besides, then was then, now is now. Two completely difference scenarios. Floydie would be embarrassed now. Why else do you think he quit, with all the cashish he made each fight?
