Mayweather might be the best we've ever seen

Floyd has a perfect record, now had he fought some different fighters at different times would that 0 still be there? It's really up for debate. How would Floyd fair vs the all-time greats? That's up for debate as well as he didn't have many to fight in his era...he wasn't rivals with any of the big time players before him so who knows?

That's definitely true, you can do that with all athletes. How would Jordan have performed in the Celtic dynasty era, how would Ted Willaims do against today's pictures, bottom line is I think it's safe to say Floyd is the greatest of our generation.

Jordan did just fine vs the 80's Celtics....he dropped 63 on the 1986 Celtics IN Boston Garden IN the Playoffs. The 1986 Celtics were a BRILLIANT team.

Ted Williams would ALWAYS hit well...he went to bat 186 times against Bob Feller and The Splendid Splinter had a .478 on base average against Feller, he hit .349 against Feller, with a homerun every 14.9 times at bat against Bob Feller. To that point Bob Feller vs everyone else: he held opponents to a .228 average, he got a strike out every 5.56 batters.

How would Floyd do against the best of his era when they were at their best ?


It was a question when Floyd started his career and he hasn't done a great deal to answer it. I suppose he'd do well, but for fucks sake he barely beat De la Hoya, he fought a worn down Mosley...he fought Deigo Corrales in his pomp and trashed him so there's that but is Corrales a great? Floyd fought Hatton outside Hatton's best weight, a weight where Hatton had SIGNIFICANT trouble vs Luis Collazo let alone a great like Floyd. The Miguel Cotto fight was a decent one....still extremely close, much closer than most want to admit although the championship rounds DID go for Floyd.


Floyd is GREAT but when we start talking "How great" is when I start trying to actually figure it out in detail.
