A lot of people say you cant compare Mayweather to SRL and other all time greats because he ducked certain fights, he retired so he didnt have to fight certain people, doesnt hit hard enough. etc etc. Now lets really think about that honestly.
1-SRL blatantly ducked one of the greatest fighters of his era Aron Pryor.
I watched a video of a press confrence held by SRL where Pryor literally
begged for a fight that no one can deny he deserved and SRL looked
right at him and said no I'm not fighting you. If Pacman would have walked
into a Mayweather press confrence, begged him to fight and Mayweather
said no he would be considerd the biggest chicken **** in boxing
history,SRL is not.
2-People say Mayweather retired so he didnt have to fight certain people.
That just happens to be exactly what SRL did. At the height of Marvin
Hagglers career when the whole world was asking for SRL vs Haggler
SRL held a press confrence where everyone thought he was announcing
the Haggler fight. Instead he announced his retirement.People complain
about the May Pac fight not happening for 2 years. SRL vs Haggler ended
up happening after 6 years and no one considers SRL a chicken ****.
if want to be real SRL vs Hearns took a couple of years to happen also
but who's counting.
Point is SRL did things that Floyd gets killed in the media for.
My question is can Mayweather really stack up to the greats when it's
all said and done ? i dont know .
what does the forum think i want to know.
