This is me being honest Floyd you lost to Castillo who's not even a hall of fame fighter barley beat him in a rematch, You lost to Madaina who lost to Devon than cried about gloves so he wouldn't knock you out you held and ran for dear life in a rematch. You fought every hall of fame fighter when they were has beens. Delahoya wash up, Mosley wash up, Pacquaio wash up and knock out cold by Marquez. cheated Marquez at the scales. Drained a green fighter to fight you at 152 knowing he had to cut his d1ck off to make that weight yea Floyd your number 1

I don't like Floyd, but i agree with the list.

If Ali had mayweathers defense he wouldn't have gotten knocked down by chuck wepners punch lol

Mayweather explained why he's the greatest, and he's right.

Please, Robinson is better than all those dudes combined.

he couldn't read the names...he just went by the faces he remembered...leave TBE alone

[Dean_Razorback]

on a serious note, floyd loves attention and also, he is genius troll, so it was kind of obvious something like this. also, this is his opinion, like every other list, they are subjective

WBC/WBA welterweight champion Floyd Mayweather Jr. (48-0, 26KOs) caused a stir among some fans and boxing historians, when he presented his selection for the Top Five fighters of all-time.

Appearing on ESPN Deportes, Mayweather ranked himself at number 1, followed by Robert Duran at 2, Pernell Whitaker at 3, Julio Cesar Chavez Sr. at 4 and Muhammad Ali at number 5.

He left out Sugar Ray Robinson, who is regarded by many as the best fighter of all-time. Joe Louis, Sugar Ray Leonard and Rocky Marciano were also left out.

Mayweather is such a joke, I wish he would just be honest, I also agree Mayweather lost to Castillo the first time. The only thing I will agree to is Mayweather is the greatest defensive boxer of all time. But really Duran is just below him at #2 Duran was a great fighter but #2 come on, I think he only said that since he was on the spanish chanel. I mean Ray Robinson is not even on the top 5 and no sugar Rey Leonard? Hmmm well I hate Mayweather and cant wait for him to be retired so I can move on from this B.S.

I took as if Floyd was pandering a bit to the Latino community, he's a smart guy for it.

Floyd actually talked sense about Ali. Separating his boxing career from the political scene that adopted him as a hero. Most people fail to do that. I think people who prop his resume up above Robinson, Pep etc are really mixing politics with boxing.

Then again he used $$$ and gates as a justification for his own #1 status and left out Robinson... I believe that part along with ranking Pernell and Chavez the greatest fighters of all time is just a product of Floyd being generally poorly read and coming up watching those guys fight.
