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

Sad that there that many people that don't know about the 2,000,000 fighters that fought before Floyd. Kids drop the Floyd blind following for a while and look into the history of boxing. You will be suprised to learn there were many many defensive, master boxers before this decade. Many that fought everybody there was.

Today's athletes are always the best ever in every sport cuz the human body is always evolving. Nutrition gets better, training gets better. Today the best athletes are stronger, faster and higher-jumping than the best athletes 20 years ago. Lebron and Dwight Howard would beat anyone from the 80s one on one, Magic, Jordan, don't matter who. Floyd is the greatest now so he's the greatest of all time. 20 years from now we'll see somebody even greater. It'll be Floyd's little nephew maybe.

Yes he is the most skilled ever, reason why cause everything gets better with time, there will be an even more skilled fighter than Floyd in the near future, maybe young Cash Flow.

39% of the fighters on Floyd's resume were world champions at the time he fought them.

In terms of pure boxing technique and ability, Floyd is one of the most skilled if not the most skilled fighter ever. He can do anything he wants in the ring based on the opponenents style. Box,fight and adapt yet never seems to get out of his comfort zone. You cannot say that about any other fighter in the last 20 years!
