"floyd mayweather is the greatest fighter of all time."

You know, I respect Mayweather and all, but that statement is just troll bait. Mayweather proved his worth at Lightweight and lower, and i consider him an ATG at those weight classes.

As of now, he has not even proven he is the best at welterweight, his current weight class. Selective opponent picking and fighting guys unproven in that given weight class will never sway my opinion. You have to be realistic, step back and take a good look at the picture here.

When you got guys like Cotto, Williams, Margarito, who have proven to be the current hard fighters at that division, completely getting ignored, it will raise eyebrows. I call bullshit when he claims it is all business and he will only fight guys who can raise the gate as he is more than willing to Mix in the Baldomir's, Mitchell's, and others far past their prime. How is a true fight fan supposed to interpret this?

Could Mayweather beat Cotto, Williams or Margarito? He is so skilled he very well could. When he slips away from those guys though, you will see that he will not go into a fight that is a huge risk. It has nothing to do with finances, as he could fight Butterbean and it would create a huge gate, simply because he is fighting.

I'll rank him as great for his earlier accomplishments, but in it's current state, I will need a lot more convincing. As of right now i consider him an incredibly gifted fighter who kicks ass. I just want to see some real ass kicked!!
