Mayweather fans come off as very insecure when they say things like that. He isn't some untouchable sacred cow despite what you guys might think.
At age 30 Floyd was 39-0 and had titles in 5 divisions, and had been lineal champ in 3, unified titles in 1 division. Loma is 11-1, titles in 3 divisions, no lineal titles and unified in 1 division.
This isn't about Mayweather fans insecurity, It's about those that don't like Floyd making an unfair comparison and posters like you defending them when they do it.
edit: floyd had only unified in 1 divison. I changed it to that.Last edited by The Big Dunn; 12-10-2018, 12:51 PM.

But greatness is judged based on fighter's entire career so we will obviously have to wait until he's retired to objectively compare the two.

Originally posted by chrisJS View PostThe forum went to **** years ago. There's an anti-EE sentiment for sure but I think there's an anti-Brit, anti-Mexican, anti-American too and all are loud and proud and make up the majority of the threads and posts. It's becoming harder and harder to see intelligent posts from legitimate boxing fans these days which is part of the reason I'm probably going to log out of my account in the new year.
You know your not talking to the creme de la creme of boxing fans when every robbery is defended, every fight is a fighter being "exposed" and everyone is "ducking" everyone etc;

Originally posted by The Big Dunn View PostI think the problem is posters that everytime there is a score they don't agree with, they say the person scoring is a racist or scored it that way because one fighter is eastern euro. You're the reason the forum went to sh-t.
You try and act above it but many posters see right through it.

Loma started his pro career 5 years ago and have achieved more than Floyd did when he was 5 years into his career. Those are facts.
The age thing is just a way to spin the argument in your favour.
