Floyd Mayweather will have a greater legacy than Mike Tyson and its not even close

[juggernaut666]

More like LOL at the ppl who voted for Mayweather thinking he left a bigger impression in and to the sport of boxing and popularity outside of it as well,i only wish you made the poll where we could see who voted for him.

disable your account and leave the site now if you're looking to get away from the ****** ytbc rhetoric because nsb has a lot of those same ******s posing on here. watch the poll results if you think i'm lying.......tyson will actually either be close or he might even win the poll which is ****ing absurd.

yea the op seems to have just made an account today and this is like his 3rd mayweather thread, but he gon learn the hard way about nsb

There's two considerations here. On paper, sure, Floyd ranks higher. But, in the eyes of thepublic, Floyd has never eclipsed Tyson at any point in his career. Even when he sold 4mill PPVs, Tyson was still the more well-known, loved, and memorable fighter.
Not to discount Floyd's accomplishments, but in 5 years, how many clicks are Mayweather videos going to be getting vs Tyson videos (which are 30 years old and transferred from VHS). I'd estimate Tyson gets more traffic 30 fold.

wtf???? floyd's WW resume craps all over his light jww resume. there isn't a single fighter in the last 15 years that has a better WW resume.

LOL. As Floyd himself has said, he's a true 140. He is probably the best JWW of all time.

But he's NOT the best WW of all time, even if you only go back to when the 140 class started.

Unequaled for two decades my ass. You're a clown.

Feel free to name a better fighter than Floyd in the past 20 years. Who ya got? Bernard Hopkins? DLH? Pac? Floyd is way better by every imaginable standard.

Its hard to say. When Tyson ended his career he was disgraced. He retired broke and a loser. However, at his peak Tyson was far more relevant in the mainstream than Floyd. Tyson was seen as the baddest man on the planet now hes seen as re a less a joke. Floyd left the sport on his own terms, beat the best fighters he fought (unlike Tyson) and Floyd was the more well preserved fighter.

Instead of asking yourselves who would you rather hang out with, ask yourselves if you were a boxer who's career would you rather have? And that's Floyd.
