Is Mayweather the best fighter ever?

[fighter1234]

Now before some of you guys start hyperventilating, I'm not asking if he is the greatest fighter ever, there's a difference. To judge greatness there are other criteria like greatness of opposition etc. I'm talking about all the things that encompass being a successful fighter. Things like:
.raw talent
.skill
.promotion and business sense
.making money
.self preservation and of course
.winning fights

I don't think anyone in history has been more successful at fighting. Discuss.

Please no nonsense (Yes I know there's going to be posts about "ducking" and other gay **** but even if that were true, it doesn't disprove my point of being a "successful fighter" as per the criteria above^^^)

How about you learn about all the greats and watch some of their fights before asking such foolery boxing has a loooooong history, floyd has great defense but as far as being the greatest all round boxer he aint even top 10.

Thank you for your reasonable post, unlike that dimwit below you.

Muhammad Ali.

But look at him now. Is that what you call successful? Now that I think about it, I should add "maintaining good health" to the criteria.

so your posting this expecting everyone to agree he is all because you never seen any fighters outside this era? sounds like you're trying hard to have a one sided argument of what you want to hear and turning your cheek to the facts.
