Comments Thread For: Foreman: Floyd Mayweather Better Than Muhammad Ali

[hectari]

I agree with Foreman, that Floyd is better skills wise than Ali, but in terms of accomplishments Floyd doesnt hold a candle to Ali or Robinson.

Floyd has the better all around skills, Ali never threw a body punch at all.

I don't agree on Foreman with Manny winning, Foreman is dead wrong, Manny has no shot, everything is stacked against him, American judges, ref, Pac really has no shot unless he can get a freak KO.

Floyd will out box him all day long because Pac cant avoid the right hand, his only shot was outworking Floyd but that Pac is long gone and even if he did outwork Floyd he won't get the decision. If Floyd loses he won;t generate anymore money, they need Floyd to win. They need Floyd to continue fighting at least 4 more times. Once he takes out Pac, he will fight Danny Garcia and make another big payday.

They hate George now after loving him yesterday.

George has a point from a talent standpoint but Ali's resume sh.its all over Floyd's.

I completely agree with this, Floyd just might be the most talented fighter ever to put on a boxing glove. Foreman is not saying he is greater, but better from a skill standpoint. For example Tyson was one the most skilled fighters, from an attribute standpoint he was better than a lot of the previous heavyweights but he was not greater than them because of his resume didn't even come close. There is definitely a difference between being better and greater. Who was better than Roy lol but he sure as hell wasn't the greatest.

I mean I guess Floyd being lackadaisical is a path to victory, but I don't see that really being Floyd.

That is not exactly what I would call a good look on Floyd though, since he is basically saying he can do it all but he is going to **** it up in a simple way.

He used the word lackadaisical but I wouldn't call it that. Floyd does sometimes give away early rounds while he figures out and adjusts to his opponent. You have instances like Canelo where the fight was a clean 12 round sleep but then you have instances like Maidana/Mosley/Judah where they have success early on before he makes the proper adjustments and sweeps the later rounds.

Can't hate on George, afterall he did said Manny will win. That's all that matters to me. Floyd-Ali fans can debate who's better.

lol... I won't comment on what he said and what people said yesterday.. lol But i think Roach and him are on the same page.

That is exactly what Foreman always says about power puncher versus boxer, it doesn't matter how good the boxer is the power puncher is finding a way.

Saying Floyd will come in with his guard down in the biggest fight in his career when he has shown up for the smaller fights is totally from left field. Now even when he had rough spots it is not like Floyd totally gets clowned at the beginning it is even (or evenish), and Manny would have to do way better. If Manny is able to do that it is not because Floyd ****ed up it is because Manny is too much man for Floyd


I can't listen to that kind of talk from Foreman because it sounds exactly what he was saying in round 12 of B-Hop-Tito.

But George means Pac is better than Ali as well. I guess he means Wlad is better than Ali as well.

That's the problem you cant compare different time frames. Ali is greater than Floyd because he fought everyone and better fighters.
