Is Mayweather the greatest boxer ever?

Posted at: 2015-04-20 
no.....name me one great fighter he fought whilst the fighter was in his prime...he does however have numerous good names on his record but these were mostly on the way to bowing out....ortiz a young fighter would prob have beat him if it had continued.....corales did bt him...the only good thing about mayweather is his record...when that goes he wont have much claim to any sort of greatness...he hasnt beaten other great fighters in their prime...

simply put no , floyd is a great boxer but he hasn't done enough to be talked about as the greatest ever for that you need to fight the best fighters out there like Ray Robinson did like henry armstrong did and like Ali did . all these fighters have lost fights because they took risks and fought the best they could while floyd has played it safe fighting good but not great boxers.

what does floyd need to do to be the GOAT, well it's to late for that now if he had fought manny pac and beat him 3 years ago that would of put him top 10 maybe ,plus floyd needed to be more active rather than fight once a year .

All I know is that there is no one in boxing history who has been on top for 17 years and has never been ko'd

in terms of skill? or resume?

In terms of resume he is not even close. In skill, we'll never know. He is however without a doubt one of the best pure boxers of all time.

The smartest boxer ever in history. Greatness comes along with it because of what he has achieved in the sport of Boxing.

He's certainly one of the most boring boxers but then again Georges St. Pierre is one of the most boring mixed martial arts fighters and he's also one of the best. So perhaps Mayweather is one of the best boxers. All I know is I fell asleep watching a re-run of his fight against Mosley... I had to force myself not to fall asleep watching the LIVE stream of his fight with Guerrero a few weeks ago. He's boring. Great? Maybe. But boring. I wouldn't pay a dime to watch him fight.

Never fought a fighter in his prime and no he doesn't have wins by knockout mostly what are you smoking ? He lost to Castillo and De la hoya. Yet they still gave it to him. And he never goes toe to toe he's just on defense and he's boring.

lol Almost everybody fkng disagrees in disgust. See Evan?

Hell no its either ali or ray robinson

the answer is yes sir

Lets face it he's undefeated mostly by knockouts and whoever he faces always ends up embarssed. I understand that his weightclass may keep people from putting a top the all time greatest. However, his record speaks for itself. Do you think he's the greatest of all time if not then who? And what would he have to do in order to become the best?

"And what would he have to do in order to become the best?"

JUST FIGHT THE BEST OUT THERE!!!!

mayweather? A GOAT???? dream on!!!!

he was p4p king till a rival took his throne, same rival he avoided to fight so...DREAM ON!!!

Emphatic **** no. Ever. Slap urself for asking this question

more like the greatest coward ever
