Size Matter ?!?

This should make people appreciate Roy Jones Jr. Guy began his career at 154lbs as an amateur and eventually won a HW title while winning other divisional titles along the way.
 
Ali was great, one of the best.

Ray Robinson more skilled IMO. Theres like 5 guys I would put above Ali, all smaller guys.

For actual boxing skill I would put way more than 5 guys

But for freak agility, movement and speed, not many come close

you would never teach anyone to fight like Ali or Roy Jones. They had something unique and unnatural that worked from them

When did you see Ali ever throw a body shot? He also leaned back from punches and got off with it early in his career because of his agility. It's why he is susceptible to the left hook

Now I am not saying Ali isn't skilled. He is extremely skilled, but he did many things wrong which worked for him due to his physical gifts. Ali did have a great boxing I.Q and knew how to make the most of his gifts, but he was no Ray Robinson or Pernell Whitaker when it came to complete skills
 
Floyd might have been able to use his hands to finish Conor, but Logan was way too big for Floyd to finish. A young male stallion, you know Floyd couldn't take all that size, so big and thick.
 
Few things to note. Floyd was 40 against Conor and 44 against Paul. 4 years can be a big difference when you are around 40. Floyd was champ just 2 years prior to fighting Conor and the fight counted as an actual fight on his boxing record. Mayweather finished Conor in rd 10, paul fight was an 8 rder. Mayweather never managed to knock Conor down.

Floyd finished off Conor, but he couldn't finish off a bigger guy.

that's why dwarves can't be considered the best Fighters or GOAT, they don't have the strength of the bigger guys.

Roberto Duran proved that skill takes a guy to some extent, but it's not enough to overcome the difference in size and weight.

Duran getting knocked out by a fellow all time great fighter is probably not the fight to pick here.
 
Mayweather couldn't finish Conor despite Conor being gassed. In the 10th round.
The Paul EXHIBITION was 8 rounds.
Dustin finished Conor. That's the difference.

Dustin hits way harder than fraud Mayweather.
Change my mind

Floyd did finish Conor, the referee literally saved him from further brain damage.
 
The result is set in stone - Floyd stopped Conor.

The referee literally saved him from further brain damage. That point is also not debatable.
Nope

Conor was still standing and laughing.

Dustin hits way harder than little Mayweather.
Mayweather struggles with Youtubers

Conor and Jake have exposed him.

Floyd lost his match to Maidana too.
And he didn't beat Oscar

Yes.

Floyd stopped Conor - fact.

The referee saved Conor from further brain damage - fact.

You’re a simpleton - fact

Change my mind son.
 
You can be P4P but not overall GOAT. GOAT is reserved for HW. You wanna be GOAT? Move up.
 
People don’t like to admit it, but either of the Paul brothers vs McGregor in boxing would be a decent contest.

One of them already looks like Conor McGregor they should have those guys fight
 
It depends quite a lot on style, someone who say goes after leg locks ultra aggressively like Minowa is well suited to potentially threatening bigger men.
 
Yes.

Floyd stopped Conor - fact.

The referee saved Conor from further brain damage - fact.

Change my mind son.
Nope.
Mayweather lacked the power to finish a gassed Conor in his first ever boxing match.
Floyd exposed

Then Jake Paul procedes to out spar the bum.
Exposed again

Floyds all smoke and mirrors
The only time he kod anyone was Ortiz when he was talking to the ref and Fraud Bumweather snuck up on him.
