    there's a difference between world titles and the actual championship.

    louis fought for the actual championship of the world. mayweather has only been lineal champion for a few defenses of a few weight classes.


    i'd have to go back through the lineage to figure out when floyd was fighting for the bonafide championship of the world, as he's done it a bunch. he hasn't done it as many times as louis, though, who defended it for a total of more than a decade, split in the middle by the war.

      i bet floyd’s nut sack (if he has one) is turning shiny blue from your non-stop slurping. aren't you tired of doing the same routine on a daily basis?

        This. Joe was the universally recognized champion. No one else could claim to be champion without going through him.

          I doubt that's ever beaten.
          His title fights opponents had a combined losing record of 340 losses .

          Beat the great Johnny Davis 3 fights for 3 losses for his 23rd defense LOL .

          His resume is full of bums .

            A perennial vacationer being compared to a great boxer averaging four fights a year. Makes me puke.

              Got to it before me. Floyds a great fighter, but he's not even close to Joe's record realistically.

                  But he doesnt challenge himself.
                  And he is not top 30,mayweather and joe louis
                  Name should not be near each other unless you talk about skill and talent
                  Alltime is a whole other ball game.
                  you're a moron...

                  ever heard of the 'bum of the month club'.....

                  louis fought a ton of bums.... he was notorious for it.

                  and that doesn't mean he wasn't great.
