Ray Leonard vs Mayweather

Tyson is like Dominique Wilkins. Highlight reels but never does anything on the big stage.

Nah. Floyd was great at the lower weights. He wasn't on Leonard's level at 147.

Anyway, almost everyone considers Sugar Ray Robinson the greatest welterweight of all time. (Though I'm partial to Leonard, myself.)

Weight shouldn't matter as Jordan was a shooting guard and Bron a small forward.

I like that comparison. I mean he won a slam dunk contest but not a title

At any weight, Floyd didn't have the resume to be considered in the conversation. He's not one of the top 2 fighters of all time.

LaBron is one of the top 3-4 basketball players of all time, at worst. Nobody in boxing can even kind of say that since Sugar Ray Leonard.
