Is Floyd Mayweather Jr The Most Skilled Fighter Of All Time?

[Carpe Diem]

Man.

It has nothing to do with bias.

Floyd is the best fighter ever. The most skilled I have ever seen. Period.

Hands down.

"come on burner, no need to be biased"

Like I dont understand this statement. Why is it so insane for Floyd to be the most skilled fighter ever?

Dont let NSB get to your head. Dont let your opinions of him get formed from the bull**** you read from these posters.

Do what i did. Get his career set. Turn off the volume.

Watch him fight. Watch some more then post your findings.

Okay, Burner..You've made your point..

Thumbs down.

Who has looked just like Mayweather? Gime a break bro.

Honestly burner, no one looks like Floyd because no one fights the same style that he does. Just like no one looks like Pacquiao, no one looks like Roy and so on and so on.

I'm just saying in terms of dominating performances, and each person tries to beat opponents differently. Vernon laid the blueprint on beating Shane and looks just as impressive against him as Floyd did. Same with Vernon. My thing is you can't really name a fight/fights in which you can say "Man Floyd is more skilled than (insert ATG)" because he level of opposition is no where near those guys. Again its a whole different ball game when you are facing another ATG, something Floyd hasn't done yet IMO.

again I'm giving him the benefit of a doubt and not saying he hasn't fought an all-time great because of him ducking opposition. If anything I just chalk it up as him not really having the opportunity, due to various cirmcumstances.

I agree he is impressive as a fighter, but when you face another ATG and a guy just as talented as you, your flaws become apparent and the little things you can get away with against b and c class fighters, you wont be able to do against those guys (other ATG's). Again this is just my opinion and if you feel opposite...cool....to each his own.

Thing is I don't think the guys he fight are low class of fighters. Floyd just has a habit of making good fighters look like ****...Guys who would give others hell he makes look ******.

Now on the ATG thing.

Pac might be the only guy he can fight that has that tag so If it comes off we'll see then. But if doesn't come off. Martinez isnt an ATG but hes highly skilled and if Floyd made him look like a fool. You know Ill be sending you a PM my dude.

cool....

btw I don't think his opponent are terrible either. I say b & C class in comparison to ATG that make up a good portion on guys like Robinson, Ali, leonard etc resumes.

[Earl-Hickey]

in terms of natural skill, then yes he is.

there have been a couple of "better schooled" fighters though

[BEEHOP]

Yes... easily the most skilled.
