    They could be bias toward styles ... kinda like how certain boxing reporters are nowadays.

          You slam them without even knowing who they are or if they even won titles to elevate Floyd. That's biased as ****

            It was a brand new division. You'll have to ask the commission why they American board made him their champ but he was defeated by the European champ who became the first champion in the divisions history.

                  Don't compare a wannabe to someone with legit knowledge like IronDan.

                    No way in hell can you even make a damn argument of Jimmy Wilde or Saddler being anywhere close to Mayweather

                      You only just found out 20-30 mins ago that both were world champions after finding out who they are about an hour ago. There's quite a few historians who are more qualified than me and certainly more than you who would put both ahead of him. I didn't say as concrete. I said "could make case".
