has Mayweather been hit less than any other boxer that ever lived???

[hugh grant]

Was having this debate at work so thought I'd bring it here..I can't find anyway to compare, maybe the collective experience on this forum will know.
To be fair until Mosley cracked him, you can't really say he has taking any real flush shots can you?
What you guys think? He should hold the record for taking the least shots in the history of boxing??

Its all relative, in the fact that Flooyd is probably the most scared to get hit fighter in boxing history. When you have that much fear, you will be the type of fighter to get hit less.

If punches bothered Pac as much, he wouldnt have recieved half the punches hes been hit with.

from 1/2008 - 5/2009, floyd wasnt hit once. Not even skinned. you can include 5/2010 - 9/2011 as well.

Yup, Floyd probably is the least hit boxer in boxing history, only 'cos when his backs against the ropes and his opponent is coming in swinging with combos, Floyd smartly turns his head or his back and draws in the foul with a punch to the back of the head. The referee then splits them up and Floyd goes for his standerd pot shot and then clinch, Well, he did this bare against Hatton anyway...

Coralles beat him up aswell, and shouldn't have lost on points... If he had lost that, i'm sure he'd have to have had a lot more wars to get to where he thinks he is today, 'the greatest'
since then he's been careful with his cherrypicking

You only think it's dumb because he compared Floyd to Pac and made Pac sound better. His point is correct however. Look at David Haye. The guy is scared to get hit and so he doesn't get hit very often. It's a big reason why Haye vs Klitschko was so damn boring. Same with Haye vs Valuev.

It's hard to tell because defense is all relative in boxing, and considering that Mayweather not only gets out of the way of shots, but he also catches them with his elbows and shoulder.

One thing is true about him though, which is that he's one of the most accurate boxers in compubox history.
