Mayweather deserves it. 50.0 and a very impressive Resume.

archie moore is the token white guy they put in their so it will not appear that whites are weak but he does not belong in that list

ednut1:
and who exactly did he beat I see old washed up fighters. Many were scared before entering the ring. When he faced top notch opposition he has no answer

Were you even alive in 86-91? Anyways he faced the best competition at his time, he knocked out a 31-0 champion named Spinx who was the toughest fighter at that time; youngest heavyweight champion in history, he knocked out Larry Holmes who defeated Muhammad Ali. Know your history son!

mayweather deserves number 1. he made saul alvarez look stupid and saul alvarez is a warrior

5 blacks
3 hispanic
1 filipino
1 white

BLACK POWER UP IN HERE

Whobedatte:

You know nothing .
Where was these two when Tyson was in beast mode ?
Tyson beat Larry Holmes
Michel Spink
Frank Bruno in their prime
These three are notable names in the game .
Evander holyfield beat Tyson and that's all
Nothing more

Larry Holmes was old and past it when he fought Tyson.
On a heavyweight all time list he is one of the greatest as good or better than Ali

Tyson did avoid some fights ,notably Riddick Bowe ,Oliver McCall, Michael Moorer and Lewis for a long time

Holyfield beat and lost to Riddick Bowe 1-2 and Michael Moorer 1-1
Riddick Bowe would have humiliated Tyson but Tyson said he could not fight him because they were friends.
Michael Spinks had no business in the Heavyweight division.
Lennox Lewis is one of the greatest and most underrated heavyweights

LENNOX LEWIS BEAT TYSON

of course we all know money Mayweather must have bribed his way up in d list just as he did in all his bouts

Larry Holmes was old ,a FORMER champion on a COMEBACK trail.

Question is why he never fought Lennox Lewis,Holyfield, Riddick Bowe, Michael Moorer, Oliver McCall in that period you mention

Why was he fighting Buster Douglas Jnr instead of Holyfield?
Tyson was good but he was also a cash cow for Don King used to scam the public. He avoided fights with key people of similar age to himself before going to prison

Lenox Lewis where is he ? Damn this list

You could call Mayweather the most successful boxer of all time but never the Greatest.
Besides he was too defensive, his aim for most of the time was to record more points than his opponents.

My Boxing GOAT is most definitely Iron Mike Tyson. For 3 main reasons;

1. He had a size disadvantage compared to other heavy weights who were much bigger than him. Despite this he took the fight to them.

2. I never saw Mike on the defensive, he always attacked.

3. His early knock out numbers were just insane and crazy. Early knockouts!

These people did not mention Bash Ali and Dick Tiger sef. Nonsense list

You mean boxing or what are you talking about?

ValCon888:
Any list where Cassius Clay a.k.a Muhammad Ali isn't the no.1 boxer of all time is a useless list.

I'm shocked beyond belief the list doesn't include Joe Frazier.

The Baddest Man on the Planet, the only boxer who throws punches in bunches, and the youngest heavy weight champion of all time Iron Mike Tyson is not even in the top 10.

The clowns that compiled this list are high on angel dust.

Agreed!

Respect that guy. 50 bouts no loss. Floyd is a one man mob

ednut1:
mike tyson is no where near the top ten heavyweights. One dimensional, no plan b, never got off the floor to win. Was beaten black and blue by prime fit fighters. Holyfied and lewis battered him like a kid

you forget how Buster Douglas knocked him down with those combo heavy blows?






I pity Tyson when he went down after those combination.

Douglas wicked.




but no doubt, Tyson was a GOTT (Greatest Of That Time)

Mayweather that never fight in heavyweight championship division. Those who did the rating are clown. Just like say someone play and won 10 world best in under seventeen is better than the one won 5 world best in senior level.

They gave the conditions, this guy forght 50 times without losing a fight can you say that with mohammed Ali or any of your favourite s?

Mehn you really don't know how boxing works do you? You fight the number 1 contender and some scrubs. Holyfield's prime was before Tyson's prime so how could they face each other? Holyfield was a cruiserweight champion while Tyson fought as heavyweight, how could they meet? It was not until after Tyson went to prison and Holyfield added some weight that they both were in the same class. DO YOU SEE NOW THAT YOU KNOW NOTHING?

brainhgeek:
Resect that guy. 50 bouts no loss. Floyd is a one man mob

At which category? You comparing welterweight with heavyweight.

Bullcrap!

robosky02:
So guys what do you make of this


When we have


Mohammed Alli. ..... For the older generation


And


Mike Tyson ... For the recent generation



Can we really say May weather is the greatest?

He is the greatest based on the elements considered. He faced 50 opponents without losing a fight can you say that with other fighters including mohammed Ali?

I might not be fan of boxing but i just know may weather is not the greatest of all time when it come to boxing.
What a Foolish and Obvious Buy List

stop saying nonsense. Those people up there are great no doubt...



But before you can consider something as the greatest.. it simply means the "most accomplish".. so considering that he never had any defeat in his career, he's simply the greatest of all time.. so stop say blabbing to make a pointless point

Floyd is one of the best boxers but he dodged fights with stronger opponents like Pacqiaou until they were too old and when he was faced with opponents who could beat him he used dirty tricks.

How could Oscar De La Hoya make this list and Sugar Ray Leonard did not?

EVILFOREST:
The only UNDEFEATED.
The only Boxer with the name, " UNDEFEATED " but not the GREATEST.

Rocky Marciano was also undefeated in his career as a heavyweight boxer. Doesn't mean he's the greatest. The greatest has to do with the kind of opponents you beat.

people with no boxing knowledge posting nonsense. Even the list controversial, there is no particular favourite amongst boxing fans who is the greatest of all time.
Mayweather is about the only complete boxer/puncher with an excellent defence until he damaged his hand. Roy Jone was a great boxer/puncher with a very weak chin. the list of the greatest boxers will always depend on who is .compiling

This People are Mad. Where did they put the "Beast" Mike Tyson? That Nigga remains the G.O.A.T in years to come. Go to you tube and see his Glory days.

You don't know what you talking about. was Floyd getting young during those periods? Manny refuse a random blood test until it was no longer convenient for him to do so.
