What TBE Means to You

[GrandpaBernard]

Mayweather purposely branded himself TBE and not GOAT.

What does TBE mean to you?

TBE goes to the most skilled and dominant boxer ever.

GOAT = you have the best victories overall

As boxing fan I dislike the idea of GOAT. No modern boxer can become the GOAT with the way the sport is currently structured and the level of opposition available

Floyd’s era didn’t have the opportunities for him to become the GOAT, but Mayweather is certainly a TBE candidate

Nothing at all, along with concepts like GOAT, P4P, ATG. They are nonsensical, mythical, and hypothetical, and hard to prove. Nobody has ever been, is, or will be TBE, or any of the above.

The concept itself is pure garbage.

It means nothing.

There is no specific measurement of the greatest in boxing, And you can’t even compare era’s because there’s so many factors involved.

So it is just a brand that Floyd uses as a selling point and there’s nothing wrong with that. But if it holds any valid meaning, that’s all opinion.

I love how people try to act like TBE means nothing to them but deep down you know this is the very first thing that comes to mind when they hear the words TBE.

Menayothin means a lot to me and to boxing in general. TBE

[The Big Dunn]

It means absolutely nothing to me. It's a catchy term Floyd uses to market himself. It's like Ali calling himself The Greatest.

It is astonishing to me that so many people with NSB accounts get so upset that Floyd came up with this moniker. I think what really bothers them is because he is undefeated he has been able to use it to generate additional revenue.

It’s a way to sell a lot of T shirts and hats.

It means Floyd is The Best Ever boxer in history. No contest.
