Who is just one rank above Floyd Mayweather, Jr.?
And who is just one rank below him?
This is the first ive seen you ask Rag and i think i should give this question justice.
I see Floyd getting inside top 26 greatest fighter of all time. Here's my top 27 ALL TIME!
1. Robinson
2. Ali
3. Louis
4. Armstrong
5. Pep
6. Langford
7. Duran
8. Greb
9. Benny Leonard
10. Gans
i just cant really see Floyd Mayweather cracking the top 10 (sorry Floyd fans)
11. Monzon
12. Ray leonard
13. Moore
14. MANNY PACQUIAO
15. Hagler
16.Jofre
17. Fitzsimmons
18. Wilde
19. Charles
20. Ketchel
(Cant see Floyd in the top 20 either, my apologies mah Floyd fan friends)
21. Dempsey
22. Tony C.
23. Ross
24. J.Johnson
25. L. Holmes
i see Floyd just below the great Larry Holmes.
26. FLOYD MAYWEATHER
27 is Gene Tunney BUT even that would be hard for Floyd to get by!
Mayweather isn't even a top 5 welterweight of all time. I'd say he is top 60 or 50. Most overrated boxer in history. Boxing journalists and fans knew that Rocky Marciano was fighting in a weak heavyweight era and didn't let themselves get caught up in hyperbole. Mayweather isn't fighting in a weak welterweight era but chooses to not fight all top competition in Kosta Tsyu, Margarito, prime Mosley and Cotto, Oscar rematch. Paul Williams and Pacquiao Pacquiao Pacquiao the list goes on.
Everyone has gone ******* nuts! You gauge a fighter's greatness by the amount of ATG fighters they have faced and beaten.
Edit: Man I won't even pretend to have a definitive list. Especially not all the way to number 60! But I just think that "All time" is a hell of a lot of boxers to choose from, and Floyd's career isn't over yet. So overrated lol
Floyd mayweather is number 5 on my list. He is one of the best boxers I've seen.
This section is dead because people too many Floyd & Manny questions. The guys in the wrestling section is going to enjoy this story.
Mayweather would be in the top 100.
in between julio cesar chavez and hagler not sure which way round but in between those two is pretty high in my book. i think floyd is more skilled than both the other guys but they fought anyone not who they knew they could beat .
manny pacquiao should be in the top five list
#12.
#11 is Harry Greb and #13 is Ray Leonard
Who is just one rank above Floyd Mayweather, Jr.?
And who is just one rank below him?
Most guys say he's top 50 or Top 20, but it doesn't really give us much perspective. Tell me where he is, compared to 2 other ATGs.
