    Ali called him self the greatest. I got no problem with Floyd calling himself TBE.

        How I feel as well. It's a moniker given to oneself to inspire themselves and in some way display what they feel. Both men also possess skills that are not average in the slightest.

        Many seem to be upset that no one else thought of it yet or forge such a path to give them confidence to bless themselves with such name.

          its obvious people have very little knowledge about the vast history of boxing and all its great fighters who fought ALL the great fighters of their era win or lose. EVEN IF floyd fights Pac its 5 years too late and he still has nothing on Robinson, Ali, and Leonard.

            Floyd has had a great career, yea i know he retired when the welterweight division was stacked, never fought Pac, and fought a couple Hall of Famers when they were way past prime but he's accomplished a lot besides that. When it's all said and done i think he'll go down as top 20-30 GOAT, not bad by any means.

              It's fine to self proclaim being TBE but the hats and shirts is going to far IMO. Remember Ali usually said it while he was talking **** to his opponents all up in their grill. To me that's a big difference.

                The welterweight division has always been stacked.

                  if you havnt fought over 50 fights ATLEAST or the other proclaimed best fighter of your division its just not enough to call yourself the best ever thats just disrespect to the actual greats who did much more before him.

                    I take it you don't think Ray Leonard is a great?

                      There is no way you are "The Best Ever" without having fought arguably the greatest fighter of this generation in Pacquiao. End of story
