The Reason Muhammad Ali Is Better Than Floyd Mayweather

[SergioMartinez]

I don't know about Anyone else.
But I think Pacquiao could beat Deontay Wilder.

His boxing skills, speed are too good. He would land hard flush shots on Wilder and probably Ko him late.

No, the reason Ali is better is because he has prime greats on his resume, Floyd doesn't.

There's nothing to add or discuss. It's a dumb thread.

Why am I even writing in such a dumb thread.

Sorry, truth hurts.

Either add to the discussion and tell me how and why I'm wrong, or don't post here again at all.

This guy been watching too much Fury IFL videos, if your going to come with an argument about why he is greater there are plenty of other things to choose from. SMFH

Ah! You're new to boxing. This post explains a lot.

I had heard of him before in the news and in the media, but the first fight I saw of his was against Manny Pacquaio earlier this year. It's actually the fight that first turned me into a boxing fan (and no, not because the fight was ultra-exciting or anything, but because I was ****** in by the hype and decided to watch it and as a result became more interested in other boxing matches and whatnot...)

You might want to learn a thing or two about the sport before creating such a dumb topic.

I've never seen anything having to do with Fury, actually.

STILL not actually contributing to the topic, I see.

Nobody is contributing. Pretty much every post has clowned the ******ity on display.

Cut your losses and pretend it was a failed troll attempt. You might save face that way.

Because he couldn't beat Muhammad Ali in a boxing match, especially a prime Ali. It's just that simple.

In my opinion, to be the 'best' of anything concerning fighting, you have to be able to defeat EVERYBODY, no matter what their size, weight, or strength is. Imagine someone walking around on the street saying that they were the greatest fighter in the world or the baddest person in the world. You would naturally interpret them as meaning that they could beat anyone and everyone that they came across. If they were to then say that "No, I mean I'm the greatest fighter or the baddest person in the world when fighting guys that are only my same size and weight", you would . Because that's not truly being the best fighter in the world then, is it?

Ali was a HEAVYWEIGHT. So we know he can stand toe to toe with smaller boxers as well as the big ones. Can Floyd, at his size, defeat Muhammad Ali, whether it be the 60's Ali or the 70's Ali? If not, then how can be 'better'?

So you can't imagine them being the same size...but saying 60's or 70's ali vs current floyd is fine? For a true comparison, they'd actually have to fight. If that fight happened tomorrow, floyd would win, therefore floyd is better than ali lol.

Because people don't always respond to the good topics... Quite the shame, really. There actually is something here worth discussing if people here actually bothered to. I have a valid point and the proof of its validity is the fact that none of the detractors have made any sort of argument against it yet except to attack me or call the thread dumb.

What?

We only have the heavyweight version of Ali from that time frame to compare with the welterweight version of Mayweather, so yes, that is the only comparison that can be made. And that version of Ali could beat any version of Mayweather that we've ever seen perform in a boxing ring, thus making him (in my eyes) the better boxer.
