It's a tail of two EXTREMES...Mayweather fought Buff Guy Cinnamon Cartel Chief Canelo when he was 23yo and green whereas Buff Guy 'Mr T' Bud Crawford faced him at the end of his career when he'd been through multiple wars and suffered a couple of losses. One thing's for sure, Crawford made Canelo look OLD in there (especially in the second half of the fight). However, Crawford is a couple of years older and was moving up in weight so you have to give him props.
Mayweather's resume is massively overrated comapre to BUD

Postol- ranked 108, Gamboa- former FW champ with one previous LW fight, Spence- brain-damaged from two car accidents, the first of which would have killed 9 out ten, Madrimov- Bud struggled with an 11-pro fight opponent, Canelo- After 67 fights and 35, far from prime. Yeah, these are absolutely stellar examples of Crawford's excellence.👍 2Comment

Floyd was on a whole other level
the best boxer since Sugar LeonardComment

Almost every one of those hall of famers that he beat were shot or past their prime.
Manny- koed cold by marquez and then floyd fought him
maidana-already lost to many fighters including khan and alexander
canelo - catch weight weigth drained and green. He would get more credit if he faced him at 154.
Cotto- koed bad by margartia and manny
Judah- koed by kostya
Mitchell- koed by kostya
mosley- shot. Lost twice to forrest and twice to winky. (floyd also ducked winky)
de la hoya- shot and it was a sd life and death win. Koed by hopkins before. He retired two fights after.
Floyd didn't fight a lot of guys that were undefeated in their prime. His best wins are below that were undefeated in their prime.
1. Corrales undefeated - top 5 p4p
2. Hatton - TOP TEN P4P undefeated coming off kostya win
3. Canelo - but it was a cw.
4. Castillo- great win but many thought he lost first fight
Compare it to bud. It's not that far off. Bud has more better undefeated wins against undefeated young hungry lions in their prime than floyd does. In fact, the spence win is better than any win floyd has in his whole career. It was a p4p top 5 fighter who many thought would beat floyd.
Not only that bud BUd never made excuses, never made you do a blood test, never avoid anyone, and moved up 3 weight classes to fight canelo with no cw. Money floyd isn't in the same universe as Crawford. Also Bud never had any questionable close fights unlike floyd with castillo and sd win against de la hoya. It was always utter domination.
Spence > corrales win
135- undefeated prime gamboa
140 - undefeated prime postol
147 - undefeated prime spence top 4 p4p
154- undefeated prime madrimov
168- prime canelo
BUD had two dominant rounds against Canelo amd the rest were really tight and competitive
Also bud was nearly polaxed by a 5'4 midget coming up two weight classesComment
