Comments Thread For: Roy Jones: I'd Beat Mayweather, Pacquiao a Tough Style

"Floyd basically took his fan base, added too it, and made more money with it than Roy ever did. Also Floyd has remained undefeated even at 35, while Roy was already brutally KO'd before his 35th birthday. Envy in the African/American community is a ugly disease sometimes."

So true. It runs deep. I don't know why! Where other races back each other to the death, blacks don't. Never understood why.

Roy isn't jealous of Floyd, nor are other African American boxers.

Are you guys that soft that you get offended every time someone has something negative to say about Floyd?

Every time an black fighter has criticized Floyd it's been for legit reasons.

Honestly, don't think that story is true. I can't see Floyd Jr berating SRL. He has too much respect for the older guys!

Thats like a young Kobe talking shyt to MJ at an NBA All Star game....im sure they were just talking smack like boxers do. Nothing serious, I can totally imagine Mayweather boasting and bragging on how he would beat Ray Leonard. Is he suppose to feel like he can beat Ray Leonard. Ray Leonard is a legend & if you don't feel that you can beat a Legend then you will never beat these new age chumps. Im sure Mayweather Jr has heard tons of stories about Leonard and seen tons of Ray Leonards fights, I mean his father fought him.

Mayweather: "I'm better than Ali & Sugar Ray"
Floyd Mayweather has claimed he is better than Muhammad Ali and Sugar Ray Robinson ahead of his super-fight with Shane Mosley in Las Vegas on Saturday.

Mayweather, 33, is unbeaten in 40 fights but 38-year-old Mosley's WBA welterweight title is not at stake.

"What makes them [Ali and Robinson] any better than I am?" said Mayweather.

"Muhammad Ali is one hell of a fighter but Floyd Mayweather is the best. Sugar Ray Robinson is one hell of a fighter but Floyd Mayweather is the best."

Mosley is widely expected to give five-weight world champion Mayweather - regarded by many as the best pound-for-pound boxer fighting today - one of his toughest fights.

Mayweather has not paid the World Boxing Association in order to sanction the encounter as a world title bout and his manager Leonard Ellerbe said: "Floyd's already the best fighter in the world, why does he need to fight for a belt to prove that?"

Mayweather added that, while a victory over three-weight world champion Mosley would enhance his legacy, he rated his rival as merely "a solid welterweight".

"I can't see how a guy like Mosley can even call himself great. I can't see how Mosley can talk about putting himself as a future Hall of Famer," stated Mayweather, who is only fighting Mosley because a match with Philippine superstar Manny Pacquiao fell through.

"I know what I have to go out and do. Everyone is trying to solve the problem, 'how to beat Floyd Mayweather?' I'm like a difficult math problem that no-one can solve."

There's nothing wrong with saying that though.

Ray would have chased Floyd out of the ring.
They are two different animals of the game.
Leonard loved the competition.
Floyd loves the money.

I remembering watching Mayweather SNR vs SRL not too long ago, and thinking to myself that not only does a 130lb to 140lb Floyd possess traits of his father but a few from Leonard. It's as if he's a combination of both.

If you followed Floyd's entire career, then you would know that countless AA fighters back him up when he was coming out of the Olympics and early on in his career.

However, he started to disrespect and discredit a lot of them, and that's when a lot of them started to dislike him.

100% on Floyd as to why he gets the hate he does.

Older Guys, don't Respect MAYNEVER, cause we've seen the BEST, and FRAUD's NOT IT!!!
