    Beating Liston was a huge upset plus he continued on taking the best challengers possible.

    Floyd is 3-4 fights away from retirement and never fought Pacquiao, Margarito or P.Williams - the possible challengers and he knows it but he has never to call himself "TBE".

      Since money is of greatest importance to him. He might say that because he is the richest boxer ever. Therefore the The Best Ever. I think it is impossible to say one is the best ever. Just like it would be impossible to say that one artist is the best ever or one woman is the most beautiful ever. He is certainly not my favorite, if that counts in the voting at all.

        He still called himself The Greatest long before he'd earnt it.

        And what difference does it make anyway to the point being made?

            That's what he calls himself "TBE".

            What do you think? Is Floyd really the best ever, or is the TBE someone else like Muhammed Ali, Sam Langford, Harry Greb or Sugar Ray Robinson?

            Let's settle this once and for all.
            Just like Ali is the 'The Greatest Ever' and Ray Robinson 'Sugar' 'Mr. P4P', Mayweather is 'TBE'. It's their own personal profile.. Leonard and Mosley no where close to Sugar's level stole his name.

            Harry Greb and Sam Langford don't see where they even touch these three boots.

                I think it was a Shotime/GBP marketing gimmick for All Access.

                  I honestly don't even respect Floyd after the whole glove fiasco. I literally can't wait till he retires. I won't miss him one bit!!!

                    Ali called himself "The Greatest Ever" people *****ed about that too until he became washed up and getting his ass whipped by younger competition.

                    It's a moniker and since Mayweather came up with it, like Ali did his, no one can distinguish themselves as such.

                      I doubt Floyd came up with it, he's not that imaginative. Imo was just a Shotime sales pitch because there was no decent story behind the Maidana fight and Floyd's previous schtick was played out.
