Who is the greatest fighter since Muhammed Ali?

[Pac=Duran]

Floyd Mayweather

Come on man. So many guys in the above list piss all over Mayweather in terms of greatness.

[Left Hook Tua]

Problem is not who they beat. It's when they beat them. Especially with Floyd.

for a couple fighters....

ppl have different birthdays/bodies/careers.

not everyone is prime at the same time.

it's not like everyone roy/pea fought was at their peak.

actually only like 3-4 of those guys had better resumes than turducken

That's my issue with him as well. The best fighter he ever beat at their peak was Castillo.

[SplitSecond]

it's ray leonard obviously

[Left Hook Tua]

That's my issue with him as well. The best fighter he ever beat at their peak was Castillo.

they don't have to be at their peak for it to count.

as long as they were still good.

hopkins/toney at their peak when roy beat them? no

but still great wins.

I have to go with my boy Manny Pacquiao on this. No doubt the buffoonish term ******* will be thrown about but I think he achievements speak for themselves. He's been running a train on murderers row for years. Precious little let up and an incredible comeback from one of the greatest KOs of all time.

So many other fighters are in with a great shout too especially Roberto Duran and Ray Leonard.

Both Leonard and Duran rate higher than Pacquiao.

These wacky Pac is great threads are starting to appear more and more

Agree, but it must be acknowledged that they at least have a better case than the utter drivel that has been polluting the board lately proclaiming the greatness of Klitschko the younger.

[The Big Dunn]

That's my issue with him as well. The best fighter he ever beat at their peak was Castillo.

I get your point-but Castillo was the best LW in the world, a southpaw (which is often cited as problematic for Floyd), and that was the 1st 2 fights Floyd had at that weight.

Is there a more difficult way to step into a new division?

There is a huge ****ng difference between beating Chavez in 93 and Nelson in 90 and beating De La Hoya in 07/08 and Mosley in 10/11.

The notion that Whitaker is inferior to either Mayweather or Pacquiao is just ****** and wrong.
