Ali sitting next to Jordan...nice!

Floyd sitting next to some dude taking a shlt! :AOR:

Lots of negative stuff here. But Floyd DOES stand for hard work, and he says it all the time. Why is that so bad?

Also: We don't KNOW if he's a woman beater. A Christian would point out, "judge not, lest ye be judged." I'm sure other religions have similar wisdom.

As for Ali, many Americans hated him in the 60s for "dodging" the draft. They believed he only stood for himself, and not for his country "right or wrong", or for its values. LATER everyone admired him. But not in the day. The blue collar guys rooted for Frazier to kill Ali in 1970. They hated his guts.

Wrong, be honest The white blue collar guys rooted for Frazier to kill Ali. The rest of America just wanted to see a good fight.

And then we have another great champion in Wlad who says:



You can't buy class.

And this is why Floyd will always be excluded from true greatness.

Oh please save me the self righteous bull****. Wlad does messed up **** just like Floyd does, the difference is Wlad knows when to say and what to say. Floyd just doesn't give a ****.

The biggest reason people say Ali is the greatest is mainly because of what he had to deal with outside the ring, and the stands he took on social issues. Floyd is also great but hes a tap dancing coon, he doesnt stand for anything, hes a fame whore.. I think thats why people (especially blacks) feel he shouldnt put himself nowhere near Ali. In judging an athlete, people tend to weigh in not just his performances but the athlete overall as a human being.

This is also why Jack Johnson is respected. He faced racism and backlash on a level not even Ali had to deal with, and he was a source of inspiration. Floyd is kinda like Jordan, of course they are great, only an idiot would deny that, but like i said people tend to factor in other things not related to sports, and those guys are nothing more than just great athletes, thats where it stops.

The people who love Pacman would tell you most of the reasons they support him has nothing to do with boxing. Hes kinda like their Ali... Floyd is a circus clown, a mascot, he stands for nothing and has no morals , and people will factor this in when judging him years from now.

The reason Ali Is the greatest Is simple. It takes a man to get Into the ring with a young 40-0(37 ko) George Foreman and get hit with the shots he was hit with for 8 rounds. Mayweather Is no Ali.

Mayweather you nothing but a marketing ploy and when you get iced, completely dominated like Rios did to Alvardo and stopped inside of 3 rounds the world will know, you and your family aint nothing but bums, you remebered as a damn blemish on boxing history.

Now you're just talking ****** !! When he gets dominated like Rios? Stopped with in 3 rounds ? Family is nothing but bums?
If you believe this, then you should be the last person try to judge him. Based on knowledge of the sport alone, I would call you an idiot!.

[g-wane]

His own son said hes a woman beater.. You need more proof than that

Also the woman that accused him of woman beating, at one time admitted under oath in another case she accused him of beating her, that she lied !!!

She even went as far as to say, she lied because she was jealous of Floyd female friend, and that he would never hurt a fly.

It is well known, that you can't build facts from lies !

Until he beats Pacquiao or got smoked by Manny he cant claim to be TBE.
