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

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.



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?

Salt water is not juicing.

Pacquiao himself said he wasn't injured going in to the fight, he said it happened in the 4th round.

He had the shoulder problem since the DLH fight. Did it affect all his fights.

These are Pacquiao and his teams own words.

If he came back now he'd still be among the best in the sport. Pacquiao is still beating up these guys and he was easily dealt with by Mayweather.

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.

Easy there. BoxingScene Staff twisting Tyson’s words. He was specifically only talking about the Welterweight division; Crawford vs Spence. He said Crawford and Spence wouldn’t mind fighting YouTubers too, and that Mayweather is better than Crawford and Spence. He couldn’t remember Spence’s name too when saying it. Mike didn’t say he’d beat anyone from 154+ and knows Jake Paul is 200lbs

Well, he is better than Crawford and Spence, and he'd beat anyone at light middleweight.

[Scopedog]

Nah. Even against McGregor he looked like a shadow of his former self. Maybe he was just carrying McGregor but I honestly believe that he was still just old and very rusty as well. I wouldn't give him a hope in hell against Spence, Crawford, or even the current version of Pacquiao, honestly.

[JakeTheBoxer]

Nah. If he comes back ( in theory), all top welterweights beat him. Even against a bum McGregor he looked rusty and old. Before that he fought washed up Berto, which was safe fight.

His last real run is Canelo - Maidana - Pacquiao back in 2013 -2015, which is a long time ago.

Pacquiao beats him right now. Pacquiao fought Thurman in 2019, while Mayweather has been inactive since 2017.

another laughable statement

Spence is forgettable. between inactivity and fighting nobodies its understandable why Spence doesn't want Bud

[deathofaclown]

The reason that’s not true is Floyd loves the limelight and attention, if he could’ve carried on at the top, he would’ve. But he’s too smart about boxing that he knew his time was coming to an end and petrified of losing.

Nobody can even say he retired to take exhibitions and more money but they didn’t start until a couple of years after he retired anyway

so I have to imagine he knew he was in decline as an elite fighter. There’s no other reason he would have retired.

[Jack_sh*t]

Floyd's career was managed for Floyd's benefit, not the fans. To say Floyd could have beaten every single other fighter in his weight class on every single day he was active is plainly nonsense. However, he didn't have to, he just had to beat them on that one, pre-arranged day and he did, the odd dubious decision not withstanding. His legacy is outstanding. Whilst I do think personally that fighting these exhibitions tarnishes that, the man is free to do as he pleases now. I wouldn't want to see him fighting Bud at 44 years old, we all know who bud should be fighting and we're all disappointed it hasn't happened yet, surely?

Then fight Spence or Crawford and not a circus act....Mikes been at the blow again!
