To be fair to Floyd here, if he is being serious, after you have a nice big hammer and have hammered a lot of nails, every problem presents itself as a nail. Floyd seems preoccupied by losses because it is what preoccupies him.

Its the same reason why even the greatest fighters are often lousy at predicting a winner.....they see a guy like Lazlo pap getting ready to fight Duran and they noticed Pap had "a great camp." So naturally pap is ready for this fight here and will suprise Duran right?

I have heard some of the smartest fighters say some of the silliest things regarding fight predictions and at the end of the day Floyd's intelligence manifests physically in the ring, to the point where its hard to take seriously what comes out of his mouth.

Floyd trolling to promote the berto fight, and you guys just lap it up.

Floyd has trolled every time he has opened his mouth in front of a camera or microphone since about 2006. These idiots whip themselves into a frenzy over it and keep filling the mans pockets with $$$ while claiming they hate him.

Floyd is the GOAT troll.

The fact he has put himself as no.1 is a pretty clear indication he wasn't being entirely serious with it. Or in the very least, he didn't expect anyone to take it seriously

Pretty sure its him trying to sell his next fight, the 'haters will still watch' tactic

Of course they'll watch, its boxing. They won't pay for it though, nor will many others

Actually? Floyd does in fact believe he is the best ever...that much I would bet the house on.

That's where you are wrong he is being serious,the guy is a ****** motherfffuuu!u!c!ker like 75% of his fan base, thier is a reason why his advisors want him to keep his mouth shut and why all questions are pre screened at press conference the guy is a moron it's not an act like many people believe

Rankings are rank

I would put Floyd in the bottom half of the top 100 for his defensive ability to avoid a fight for twelve rounds. I've never seen him in a fight so I have no idea how he would be. No better than his Uncle Roger I suspect. Second tier punching bag.

Interesting thread.

Floyd Mayweather is the son and nephew of 3 pro boxers, been in and around the sport since he was 3 years old, has fought for his country in the Olympics, has an almost 20 year run as a pro, has been in and around boxing gyms his whole life and has talked about boxing with a who's who of the sport yet keyboard warriors that do not box have an issue with his top 5.

While I don't agree with his list and think he was obviously trolling his haters, I'm going to take Floyd's opinion on this over lets say Wizardish.

[Caught Square]

I don't agree with who he had in the top 5 but having Ali 5th isn't outrageous at all. In fact, it's probably the most accurate name and position he had in the top 5.

[MoneyMayFan]

Please, Robinson is better than all those dudes combined.

ok sir how old are u? because most of us (including floyd) cant go that far back

[12TRIBEsRiSe]

Delusional boxing champ can't read. Ranks the greatest fighter in the history of boxing 5th, below himself and a bunch of other fighters that don't agree with him.

so basically he cant have his own mind?

This is NSB, individual thought is met with RedK and contempt. This site has a ton of sheep.
