    Default Floyd's "I'm better than SRR and Muhammad Ali" boast

    Reminiscent of Larry Holmes' "Rocky Marciano/jock strap" comment before his fateful fight with Michael Spinks, and look what happened......hmmm
    Could this be another approaching Karmic Adjustment that places HUBRIS in its appropriate place?
    Larry Holmes 48-0
    Floyd Mayweather 47-0

    Spinks Jinx one more time:

    Leon Spinks: "I'm picking Manny."

    Karma is a bitch.

    He is a better fighter than Clay , Mayweather is Robinson without the big power.

    Floyd could beat Manny. It doesn't matter. He's not TBE and his comical boasts are a disrespect to all fighters who have come before him. Let others say you're TBE..... don't go around beating your own chest.

    Well he is a good bit better than Ali was. Ali was a chin with stamina and good boxing skills.

    Mayweather is just far better.

    SRR is maybe one too far.
    You say tomato,
    ‘n I say …… it correctly.

    Technically he's better than both guys for sure. SRR didn't have the defence Floyd did.

    Mosley makes a good point between 1.53 - 3.00
