    Bud has amazing ability, id put him favourite against Floyd at 147 and 154. But right now Floyd is greater. Not much though, as a lot of floyds wins you are wondering how much credit should he actually get for it, as you were always debating yourself floyd had home advantage, or they were bloated up or at end of career, so there were lots of ideas to juggle when assessing anything floyd did,even though they are massive names of the sport.

      How do you know? Mayweather had a back and forth with Augustus, Corley and numerous guys far less tricky than Gamboa. Gamboa would give Floyd all he could handle in those lower weights. Floyd’s answer to Gamboa would have to be his answer for everyone that gives him adversity, run and play tag, and Gamboa is plenty fast to still give him trouble there.

      And the other guy talking about Mayweather has a better resume so ofcourse Mayweather wins. boxing noobs always good for a laugh, but ultimately not really worth talking to.
      Gamboa too small

      Floyd was so good the only guys who pushed him were bigger or a similar size to him at minimum


      T-Bud on the other hand

        Floyd beat great fighters by wide decisions

        Home advantage is unnecessary when you win at least 9 out of 12 rounds in almost every fight

          I believe Crawford beats Charlo and Tzsyu at 154, both of them. They are bigger than him. beating these guys is the same as Mayweather beating young Canelo.

            What? The proof is in the pudding. The Canelo that fought a 36 year old Floyd would have knocked the Oscar that Floyd fought at 30 slap out. Floyd struggled with both Oscar and Hatton for more rounds than one wouldve thought at 30 and then turned around sparred Spence and washed both Gurrero and Canelo at 36 they barely touched him at all. Had Floyd fought Gurrero and Canelo at 30 he would've struggled..maybe u just started watching Floyd late in his career. So I don't know what u mean that's not how it works Bud is p4p #1 now at 36 years old, is Bud not better now than he was at 30?

            U need to go watch those Floyd fights I mentioned and ask yourself truly if the 36 year old version of Floyd was not better than he was at 30. Take the age out of it and just go on what u see. 36 is generally last year of prime.
