Floyd claims that if it were not for the weight difference GGG would be "easy work"

[Syntax Error]

Mayweather Jr is right, but he could have said that same about Wladimir Klitschko too, so ultimately, it's a meaningless statement.

So... You agree that he fought a bunch of shit fighters.
I'm not saying Armstrong wasn't great but let's recognize that he was a nibblet of corn in a steamy pile of shit.

He was pure gold in any era ever in the history of boxing. Floyd is just a fanny in comparison.

Remove the bums and tomato cans and Armstrong really won 16 in a row by KO.

Floyd has never been able to do even that.

You're obsessed with Mayweather.

I never compared the two fighters. Someone else brought Armstrong into the discussion and I just pointed out that he fought a bunch of shit fighters over his career and that people should consider that when they talk so highly of him.

Somebody said earlier that the jump from welter to middle seems to be larger than a corresponding leap between other divisions.

I hadn't thought about that, and I think it's a good point. Only the very best manage to hold welter and middle titles .... people like Emile Griffith, Carmen Basilio and Ray Robinson come to mind as possibly the only three who were the true undisputed world champions.

Even split title holders who have done this are an impressive bunch, Tommy Hearns, Ray Leonard, Roberto Duran, Oscar de la Hoya, Felix Trinidad and Miguel Cotto. I had to look this up, so there may be more.

Perhaps, as it is in the 'middle' 😀 Of the divisions, it tends to be a bit of a crossroads. In the olden days of 8 weight divisions with a sizeable difference between them, it was much harder to become a multiple weight champion. In more modern times, nutrition has allowed people to move weights more effectively, and perhaps people start off lighter, such as Floyd and Manny, and then move up but are too physically small to get all the way up to middle from welter. Equally, people may start off at around middle and then fill out and move up from there, such as Roy Jones, James Toney etc.

Just comparing Floyd and Manny with Roy and James seems ridiculous doesn't it?

That is just it! Floyd is far from being TBE boxer.

Your being a bit harsh master at the very least he's belongs in the conversation of who's the TBE.

I don't see a logical, unbiased case for Floyd as TBE at this point in time. If Floyd came back and beat GGG, I would say he moves into the discussion. Right now Floyd is in the top 10-15, which is still pretty damn special.

[ruthless rocco]

I'm pretty sure the stats show that Floyd is TBE.

[erics44]

floyds just a nob

if he weren't a boxer even the people who like him now would think he is just an annoying little nob

[ruthless rocco]

Right and the economy is just dandy too. I am sure my stats would look great if I was shadow boxing a tree.

As a former winner (and soon to be 2 time champion) of the prediction contest -- I'd bet on the tree to whip your ass Miles.

Sadly, you are a donkey.
