    Pierce Egan did that I think. Floyd is absolutely one of it's finest exemplars, however. That doesn't change the fact that Compubox is a piss poor way of comparing fighters though.

        Also +- it means nothing, Chris Arreola had a rating of +25 even after being demolished by Vitali. Higher than Pernell Whittaker, Hopkins, Calzaghe, Jones Jr, Lomachenko. At one point even after Marquez KO'd Diaz he had a +- of 23.
        yeah...so you're saying those guys have better defense than floyd mayweather, jr? are you saying those guys got hit less than mayweather? that is what compubox says...and you don't need compubox to look at whose getting hit in the ring the most...unless you count phantom punches like lampley...

Who can beat him at 130 pounds? Nobody fighting today for sure. He is getting used to the pros and improving a lot with each fight.He'd slaughter Salido in a rematch in my opinion.
            dude you hate it so much that i'm a big fan of calling triple g out on his hypocritical bullshit and for the record he gets hit a ton that's why he stays away from "real" competition and is hard to negotiate with as if he's a ppv star...he's not...swallow that reality and digest it...

            now loma is the goods at 130 and a bonafide hall of famer, he was taxing that ass on salido in the later rounds and he'd definitely would beat the shit out of siri in a rematch...

              Yes I did...you're racism doesn't change that...

                I was never big into Mayweather because of the attitude but I've got huge respect for his talents.
                Yeah he had to adapt...and tax that ass with his "C" game...the attitude is what got him to where he is...the highest paid athlete of all time...

                    who fought the most lineal champions and held the most lineal titles? defined the art of being smart in and out of the ring with all mental faculties and the highest gross salary...keep hating you will...that's for sure...
