That's deeply flawed logic you're using.
Floyd is not Armstrong or Gavilan or Napoles or Duran. He is his own fighter and his own man.
Comparing him to these fighters based solely on how high in weight he's willing to fight is stupid.
He put that TBE hat on his head not me :p You are the one that said Floyd doesn't fight at 160, like it is something to be proud off :-\ I originally posted that he needs to challenge himself and GGG is a challenge :D is Genaro Hernandez the only fight that Floyd wasn't the favorite :confused: what were the odds when Ali fought Liston or Frazier, or Hopkins vs Kovalev :confused: if you want to call yourself a great you need to be compared with the greats ;)
Over $400 million in career earnings.
47-0 record spanning 18 years as pro

So you don't want to answer the question about GGG being the favorite :confused: many great fighters had better starts than 47-0 :p but they took challengers and didn't establish their greatness until after losing :p Zarate was 52-0 before moving up to challenge Gomez and Zarate is not even considered the best bantamweight ever ;) Benvenuti was 65-0 with a 120-0 amateur record before his first loss :D not to mention the number of hall of fame fighters other greats have fought ;)
All that other stuff is irrelevant :-\ sure he's been P4P number 1, whatever that's worth, it is a highly subjective mythical list after all :p but when was the last time he wasn't the favorite going in :confused: Mayweather needs to challenge himself if he wants to be considered an all time great :p

Floyd has fought guys that, at this present time, would be ranked higher on the "p4p greatest of all time" list than Glolovkin.
I love GGG but he isn't even the linear champ of his weight division, and he never beat the man at his weight division. Why is he considered a greater fighter than a guy like De la Hoya? :confused:

You said Floyd should fight Golovkin because, and I quote, "he should be measured against other greats." That insinuates that you believe Golovkin is a great fighter. If you don't think he's a great fighter, why would Floyd fight him? According to you, greats must be measured against other greats, so fighting a non-great like GGG would be a waste of time, right?

I said :-\
'Other great fighters that started at lighter weights than Floyd have competed at middleweight (Armstrong, Gavilan, Napoles, Duran) :-X Floyd claims to be TBE so he should be measured against other greats'
Where is GGG in that sentence :confused: Golovkin would be a huge risk for Floyd and previous great have taken risks and challenged themselves :p

Like I said most of that stuff is irrelevant to in the ring achievements :p guys like Robinson, Armstrong, Ali, Duran, Leonard didn't earn anywhere near what Floyd has but are a million times greater than Floyd will ever be :p

These are the things that make Mayweather the best ever.
He has triumphed and prospered and influenced positive change in the sport in ways no one else has.
Re: Manny WILL get stopped and I guarantee this
I have Floyd 46-1 over 18 yrs ;D but what are numbers. Spadafora spanned 18 but should have been 48-1 :-X. He also did more jail time than Floyd.

Fighting the best and challenging yourself against the odds is what makes fighters great :p
You say he has influenced positive change but I would question his support of USADA which has been found lacking when VADA is clearly the better instrument :p
Again it is outside the ring stuff so holds no bearing on Floyd's perceived greatness as a fighter ;)

Maywether has fought the best throughout his career. He has beat them all.
He has almost single handedly forced the issue on increased PED testing. Before he started insisting on it 6 years ago it was hardly considered. Now it's a staple for most big fights. This helps protect the fighters. Your personal feelings about VADA vs USADA are irrelevant compared to the good being done by the god being done to end the cheating.
The outside the ring stuff is very important to Floyd and it obviously factors into his perception of himself as the best ever.
He's going to have had a 19 or 20 year career where he's fought the best and beat them all. He'll retire with his health and brain fully intact, not a drooling, shaking vegetable.
He'll be rich as fuck, not some half way house living bum.
He'll have managed his career his way without getting screwed over by shady promoters and without having to answer to anyone but himself.
No other fighter has ever had this much control over their own careers. If you think that's nothing then you just have too narrow a view of what the sport and business of boxing is really all about.
He's been able to achieve all these amazing feats by being such a great fighter.
Re: Manny WILL get stopped and I guarantee this
We'll have to agree to disagree about Floyd fighting the best (and beating them all :-X) :p apart from Genaro I can't think of a fight where Floyd wasn't the favorite, he never challenged himself as all the previous greats have :-\ you may appreciate the business side of boxing but I prefer to concentrate on what is done inside the ring :lickish: other matters outside the ring like doing time for beating a woman does not concern me in regards to a fighters accomplishments between the ropes ;D
Re: Manny WILL get stopped and I guarantee this
Mayweather is one of the best ever / all time greats, so it goes without saying that he's ALWAYS the favourite to win his fights.
The fact that you think that makes him less of a fighter is laughable.
