Who is the greater boxer: Floyd or Ali?

I'll pretend I didn't hear that. Corrales wasn't even on Oscar Bonevenas level.

What did I say that was wrong?

didnt you know? FLoyd has already faced his Foreman in Corrales, his Frazier in Castillo, and his Liston in Bruseles

You forgot his Shavers in Hatton.

You said that not me

That was only a little compairson. Corrales at 130 had one punch knock out power, as Foreman did also.

Corrales was fun to watch, but he wasn't a fraction of the fighter that George Foreman was. Ko wins over Angel Manfredy and Derrick Gainer don't compare to KO wins over Frazier and Norton.

[DonTaseMeBrah]

its too bad Ali doesn't have too many Henry Bruseles' on his resume...and i think the fact that he didn't have two pouty retirements to cement his legacy

more like to cement his undefeated record vs the deepest division of boxing at the time of his retirement.

Mayweather faced his Foreman, in Corrales at (130), Corrales just like Foreman, was knocking everybody out. Ofcourse Foreman accomplished more, a little comparison it's all it is.

How many are true hall of fame fighers in mr.counterfeit cash's resume?

2.

old oscar & 36 year old marquez who is a career feather who has to move up 2 divisions for the fight.

The best fighter in mr.counterfeit cash's record is a 36 year old career featherweight fightng at 144.

How this guy is considered a ATG is beyond me.

[Spray_resistant]

Ali = ATG while Floyd umm not so much. Out of 39 fights he only really has about 5 notable wins really and most of those were close competitive fights.

[Smokin'J]

Same thing in Ali's case. They're both great...and both seem even greater because they say they are...and we believe them.

"I am the greatest..." Ali said this so often it was engraved in everyone's minds.

it ain't bragging if you can back it up and Ali sure as hell did back it up

That's irrelevant...if they were wins then they are wins...

And Floyd is at the tail end of ATG rankings...while Ali is at the top...

Technically Mayweather is the most skilled,He is a more complete fighter than Ali ever was and there have been many more complete fighters than Ali throughout history.

Joe Louis was a more complete fighter than Ali but I still wouldn't rank Ali as anyting less than the greatest heavyweight of all time.

Larry Holmes perhaps was an even better version than a prime Ali was,but Larry Holmes never fought and beat who Ali did in the circumstances Ali did


I don't think Ali would have avoided the likes of Paul Williams,Shane Mosley,Miguel Cotto and Antonio Margarito however.

Actually I think Ali would have fought all four of them within an ten month span.


Mayweather has the potential to be the best but he's to concerned with his perfect record to challenge himself.

I've said it before and I will say it again,I don't care how skilled a guy is,If he aint fighting the best then **** the rest

Mayweather avoided Paul Williams? I thought they had the same Manager ( Al Haymon ) and his fighters NEVER fight each other.....

Mayweather avoided Shane Mosley? Um we all know the answer to that....lol..I think its the other way around and now that Mayweather is at the top and Mosley is isnt near the top, Mayweather is ducking him? yeah ok...if thats the case then Mosley is ducking Berto..

Mayweather avoided Miguel Cotto? Um when they were both @ 140 under Top Rank...Arum didnt want to put Cotto in with Mayweather. Also when Mayweather was winning the titles at 147, Cotto was still @140 fighting Malignaggi.......

Mayweather avoided Margarito? nuff said
