Comments Thread For: Mayweather Explains Why He's TBE, Better Than Past Greats

[sweetpea87]

“When we talk about these champions, legendary fighters, we talk about how they have 100 and something fights, 100 and something victories - but when you look at the history books I still beat more world champions than any fighter in history. I respect these fighters because these fighters are the fighters that paved the way for me to be where I’m at, but there’s no fighter in boxing that accomplished what I accomplished at all. You can go back as far as you want to go back," Mayweather said."

This argument of his really means nothing because he fought in an era where each division could have up to 5 different champions. In the days of Robinson and those guys there was 1 champion per division. If there were that many belts back in the old days, then Robinson and lots of those old all time greats would have beaten way more champions than him. Also the fact that there are 17 divisions now and there used to be 8. If there were 17 divisions with 5 belts per division when Henry Armstrong was fighting just think of how many champions he would have beat through 5-7 divisions.

Hahahahahahahahaha

Jr is the wanna be !!!!

He don't rank in the top 100 !!

In the last 12 or more years he avoided and never fought a prime elite champ or not!

He fought old champs that couldn't pull the trigger.

To sum it up

He shouldn't be in the hall of fame but the hall of shame!!

Poor little boy wanna be. Got whipped by Castillo and mocks Ali Marciano and Louis.

Know this : all the old timers won't give this little prick the time of day when it comes to who's great.

The young generation is who short round banking on because they are easy to convince hahaha

Also Robinson used to go up into the middleweight division and beat up 160lbers while STILL weighing 147 on fight night

If Robinson weight 147lbs against 160lbs people, then that's a 13lbs difference in weight.

So now tell me the difference between Mayweather and the above opponents in fight night weight.

Yeah, I thought so.

Mayweather is a great fighter. In the long history of boxing there have been many great fighters. If Mayweather really is TBE then he shouldn't need to say why he is TBE. I never heard of Sugar Ray Robinson telling the world why he was the best fighter. It's much better to have boxing people say you are TBE than to declare you are TBE and have hats and shirts made up saying this.

Say what you will about Floyd, but he is indeed one of the greatest of all time!

He retired at 40 years of age. #1 P4P, undefeated, 5 division champ without a legit threat from 140-154. Age 40!!!!!

lol this is pure comedy.

If I can just get a penny for every giggle i get from his joke I'll be as rich as floyd hahaha!

The boxing scribes need to start understanding 2 things... #1: few give a flying pile of horse dookie what this rich goofball thinks anymore. #2: they need to do like the more trustworthy news organizations are doing now with that pathetic Kellyanne Conway twit: DON'T bring the jurr-cough on their programs anymore. Simple. Problem solved.

Why bring on a blowhard with way too much time on his hands? He spouts narcissistic b.s. 24/7/365. Try to keep up: Ignore the goon and eventually the goon will go away.

And no, I didn't read the article, nor will I read it. It's the same b.s. he always spouts. Fact is he's a juicing ducker that deserves zero attention or respect.

[deathofaclown]

I don't completely disagree with some of the things he says but really it's for the people to judge.

At the end of the day he's the best of his time and that's all you can really be. There's probably too many factors involved to say who is the best of all time.

History would probably judge him better if he didn't keep trying to convince everyone who is the best.

[Catrin]

After all those years of cherry picking! You are the best alright!
