Comparing Mayweather to Sugarman is a joke!!! Ray

Comparing Mayweather to Robinson is not a joke, they are both the best of their respective eras.
Anyway I said the weight was comparable, not that Canelo was comparable to LaMotta and Maxim. Although I think Canelo
might be comparable to Maxim.
My point was not to say that Mayweather is as good as Robinson but to point out that Mayweather has achieved something that is akin to the achievments of fighters from previous eras. Apart from the heavyweight division how often today do you see a champion fight and beat another champion who is 15 pounds heavier than him?
