« on: April 26, 2008, 03:54 PM »

Do ya ll think Floyd mayweather is the new Ali.

he beat the big show, he beat Ricky hatton. he has not lost a match since he started.

Do ya ll think he is the next Muhammad Ali?

the only problem is he is too cocky.

What are you talking about Big Show?

Mayweather should fight Miguel Cotto first before talking about being as good as Mohammed Ali. I think he is wary of Cotto otherwise he would have taken that fight long ago.

ali was more than a boxer. even as a boxer, i can only say mayweather just comes close.
ali was a poet, a comedian and a fighter.

simple, mayweather is'nt ali.

mayweather aint no Ali.
Mayweather doesnt even come close to the likes of Mike Tyson, Michael Spinks, George Foreman.

How can you say that? Mayweather is in probably the most competitive division in World boxing ever and he is still undefeated. Only Miguel Cotto stands in the way of absolute greatness. A great is measured by his performance against other greats. Infact, a great does not lose to chumps - something Mike Tyson has done too often - from Buster Douglas onwards.

As for Michael Spinks, how can you say that?

Buster Douglas was no chump. Watch his fight with Tyson . . . it was a battle of intelligence.

He was a grade one chump. Check his record. - No scratch that. I just checked his record. He only lost 8 fights - still, he was regarded at the time as a nobody and several well respected commentators have said that anyone who aspires to greatness should not be losing to Buster Douglas. Talkless of Danny Williams and that Irish guy who's name I forget.

the only problem is he is too cocky.

Beating Big Show and anyother was a script play my friend, both made huge amount of dough from the fight. Looking at the fight with Big show for example, do you think it was a fight at all? Big show had him in his hand like a baby being cuddled by his mother, he could have crushed him like a filty can, but he played according to the script.

Money mayweather may be undefeated in boxing, but alot of guys i know will kick his as* very hard that he wont get up for 8months.

I want us to be able to diffentiate real fight with script play.It was fun watching though.
