The manner in which he has won leaves a lot to be desired. Points wins and a safety first style do not earn respect when held to comparison of past atg's.

People keep asking who has went on a better run but Mayweather is supposed to be the best fighter in the world and an all time great so naturally he is held to a higher standard.
Other than Pacquaio and maybe Marquez....who is an all time great fighter in this era?
For what it's worth, I think Froch went on a better more consistent run of fighting top fighters without strategically choosing when and if to fight them.

It so happened floyd compiled a list of popular names that were shot past it and overated.
Plus there is the notion floyd is using Peds .
With tougher competition comes loses.
When you hand pick soft opponents at the time its easier to stay undefeated
Wlad
Froch
Rigo
Possibly crawford
Danny garcia
LARA
possibly kovalev
Floyds resume is closer to GGG and wilder

Crazy to think that fighting Pac in 2012 and 2015 are treated as two different things.

Froch is the one who would come close in terms of competition faced, but he didn't unfortunately win all of them.
