          I guess Brady can’t be the best ever because he didn’t play outside of America either.

          Now it’s not who you fought but where the fight was. Even though in the ODH, Canelo, Gatti and Manny fights the crowd was overwhelmingly for the other guy.

            Every other legend and ATG have risked their records in enemy territory. Some of the biggest upsets in boxing history have happened on unfamiliar grounds... look at Tyson in Japan, Foreman in Zaire, Joshua in the US, Pacquiao in Australia/Vegas, etc.

            True ATGs:
            Duran fought in France, Argentina, Mexico, Puerto Rico, Costa Rica, Nicaragua, Canada, Panama, etc.

            Ali fought in the Philippines, Zaire, Puerto Rico, England, West Germany, Switzerland, Ba*****, Japan, Canada, Ireland, Indonesia, Malaysia, etc.

            Pacquiao has fought in the Philippines, Thailand, Japan, China, Australia, Malaysia, etc.

            Tyson has fought in Japan, England, Scotland, Denmark, etc.

            Robinson fought in Mexico, Belgium, France, England, Germany, Austria, Switzerland, Italy, Canada, Jamaica, Dominican Republic, Trinidad and Tobago, etc.

            Archie Moore fought in Australia, Mexico, Italy, Panama, Argentina, Uruguay, Canada, England, Germany, Brazil, Philippines, etc.

            Foreman fought in Zaire, Japan, Venezuela, Jamaica, Puerto Rico, Canada, England, etc.

            Hagler fought in England, Monaco, Italy, etc.

            Roy Jones fought in Australia, Russia, Poland, Latvia, etc.

            Klitschkos fought in Russia, Austria, Germany Ukraine, Poland, Hungary, England, Switzerland, etc.

            Golovkin has fought in Germany, Panama, Kazakhstan, Ukraine, Monaco, Denmark, England, etc.

            Canelo has at least fought in Mexico and the U.S.

            Spence traveled to the UK to stop a prime Kell Brook in his hometown of Sheffield and take his title.

            The list goes on and on. For many of these fighters, the U.S isn't even their home country....

            Floyd is the only "ATG" in history who has never fought outside his hometown, not even once.

            Would Floyd still be undefeated if he had fought in Mexico, Puerto Rico, Philippines, Argentina, Europe, Asia, in front of hostile crowds, biased referees and judges, without any hometown advantages while risking getting drugged or cheated?

            Floyd Mayweather will never be the TBE. That title belongs to those that took risks to prove themselves as MEN.
            What recently banned loser is this? Peepeepoopoo
            an maybe? That or a Manny or canelo stan that got banned for racist stuff.

              .
              Well in the NFL etc, you go on the road every other game.

              Crowd is one thing; judges and refs are another.

                  Floyd not fighting outside of the US means absolutely nothing in my opinion but I still don’t view him as the TBE.

                    Stop crying because your man crush don't meet the criteria. He don't have an all time great in his prime on his resume either.

                    Don't worry he about to fight an extremely overmatched non boxer on top of a helipad in Dubai. Thats gotta count for something.

But I fail to see that as criteria for ATG status, it's just nitpicking. He fought where the money was. He's also far from being the best ever, but if he wants to call himslef that I don't care, we all know it isn't true
                      hometown can simply be a metaphor for not fighting outside your comfort zone. and the title says hometown/country.

                      also Floyd is based out of Vegas for years u dumbass, one would think that a f1owmo like you would know that.
