      no fighter will ever be able to surpass the fighters of the past because the fights are only 12 rounds 15 rounds is where the real champions where born and in todays game it just aint happening

          Well assuming that my hypothetical situation was real (what this thread is about you ****ing moron)

          Ricky Hatton isn't world class?
          Oscar De La Hoya isn't world class?
          Winky Wright isn't world class?
          Jermaine Taylor isn't world class?
          Shane Mosely isn't world class?
          Miguel Cotto isn't world class?
          Jose Luis Castillo isn't world class?
          Diego Corrales isn't world class?
          Jesus Chavez isn't world class?
          Genero Hernandez isn't world class?
          Zab Judah isn't world class?

            You could make a case for it, yes.

            But he wouldn't get past Winky at 154, let alone Taylor.

            Taylor/PBF will be an extreme mis-match, worse than DLH/B-hops.

              TO be the best ever, Mayweather has to fight and beat Baldomir, Mosley, De La Hoya, Spinks (or whoever the 154lb champ is) and the middleweight champ, before retiring undefeated. Then I will definitely recognize him as the greatest fighter of all time. It's a tall order, but Mayweather could do it.

                If he beats all those guys and had all those division titles you would have to consider him an all-time. No one will ever consider floyd the greatest because I think that spot is saved for SRR. But if he did beat these people he should be considered the G.O.A.T.

                  Maybe not greatest ever but I think greatest unarguably of his time.

                  I think Floyd knows how to beat a Hatton type fighter.

                  I don't think Floyd will ever go to 160 just based on his height.

                  Leonard is taller than Floyd so it didn't look to bad for him at middlweight.

                    I'd say yes, If he actually took those fights and won, no way that his Pound for pound could be disputed. Even if you hate Mayweather, you would have to give him credit for finally taking some fights that people think would be tough for him or that he has been ducking...if he not only took the fights but won with even a glimmer of what we seen in those lopsided embarassments of Judah and Gatti, there would be no way his status could be argued. I personally like Mayweather as a fighter alot, but like everyone else I wish he would fight somebody that might pose even a small threat. I hope he gets in there with Mosely or Winky the most. The Margirito fight would be nice, but Mayweather would mop the floor with that bum.
