His BoxRec bio says GBSo who then? Al haymon?
Technically no, but in actuality yes. All the PBC fighters are Haymon fighters. Haymon has a bunch of promoters under his wing like Floyd and Lou Dibella, so Al can act as manager and promoter and circumvent the Ali act.So who then? Al haymon?
I agree with you on crawfordI should have clarified.

Prince Nas was the man. I really wish he kept boxing.
Those somersaults over the top rope.
-Drew
No need. He is the lineal champ everyone knows it and sanctioning fees were a reason he gaveI don't know much about boxing...but to my knowledge (and correct me if I'm wrong)
-There's 4 boxing "leagues" or whatever you call it
-Mayweather had 3/4 welterweight title belts for 3/4 of those leagues (until he was stripped of one)
-Kell Brooke is currently the IBF welterweight champion
Why didn't Floyd go after the IBF belt to have all 4??
Because Floyd wanted the easy route to retirement. He didn't want to give the fans what they want, and instead fought a subpar washed up easy opponent like Berto Still a top 12-15 ranked boxer doe. Even with the sanction fees to pay, it's still pennies to him. There's actually 5 different belts, WBC, WBA, WBO, IBF, and The Ring. Technically not really considered "leagues".
Ypu vot old folks sayin he wudnt have lasted in the 80s or 90s yet no one discredits marciano like that lol

Wth has Thurman fought? He almost got KO'D by a bum his last fight and u think he "deserve" to fight Floyd?I would have rather not have him fight Berto. I can see the question marks now in the future, if Brook or Thurman beat one another, there will be that question mark, "Damn I wonder how Floyd would have fared well with (the winner b/w Brook and Thurman)." Neither Brook or Thurman deserve Floyd, but they deserve it more than Berto for sure.
Also the IV injection prior to the Pacquiao fight sort of caught me off guard. I still think he's top 12-15 boxers of all time, but the injection is a question mark.

Of course little g turned down the fight with Ward but want to fight a smaller guy like Mayweather. Shame on you little g.

You keeping adding "he's top 12-15 boxers of all time." No way in hell you can objectively name 14 boxers better than Floyd.
Judging by majority of your post, you are not knowledgable in boxing. So I know you can't name 14 boxer better.
Of course little g turned down the fight with Ward but want to fight a smaller guy like Mayweather. Shame on you little g.
OH ok LmaoHonestly, I'm a Ward dude, he's my hometown boy, but didn't he just semi-retired and came back to fight a commentator bum? Ward has to start over and fight some top dogs now. GGG is now a PPV guy, with his upcoming fight. Ward still can't sell out his own home town arena. Trust me, I've been there. Dude only got 300k viewers on BET.
Robert Guerrero? Same dude who fought Floyd?
First off, top 12-15 boxers of all time means he's in that, but he's not necessarily #12 or #15. Wow. With all the boxers, that's a good "top". SMH damn at some kids.

No **** this dude. I said 14, because you are implying that there can arguably be 14 boxers better than Floyd.
Judging by your knowledge, you can't name 11 boxers better than Floyd.
I chose 12-15 because I can't just pick a number right away which one he is. It's like me asking you who your starting 5 is for basketball, there's a whole pool of talent right? Damn you must be bored as hell pewping in your toilet.

Then why not say 1-15? I know you can't name 14 better boxers, that's why I called you out...

You called me out because you're taking things personal with me man. You still won't forget how I post-owned you before to a whole new dimension in a different thread. You're posting and arguing out of anger. It doesn't take much brain cells to see that "He's in 1-15 top boxers" is the same as "He's in the top 15" boxers. Holy hell man.
Likely, in your eyes, you think Floyd is #1. But in reality, it's hard to compare who's better because you couldn't compare them since they all had different opponents and different times. It's like saying either Lebron or Jordan is better than the other, well you can't establish any of that due to the different opponents they faced. Sugar Ray Leonard, Roberto Duran, Sweet Pea Pernell Whitaker, Hearns, etc at WW may have better luck against Floyd compared to this era. So I really can't pin point a number.
Take the L bro better luck next time.
I don't know about the other two times, but the last they offered it, they offered 164 with a 50/50 split. If Ward wants the fight at 168, he's not getting 50/50, and I don't blame GGG and K2 for that. GGG is the A side, and Ward has no fan base. Even his own city don't really **** with him.Didn't Ward turn down Golovkin three times though?
When the hell did you ever own me?
You really think I'm angry? Someone not agreeing with you, makes them angry? You must be soft, son.
Do you realized that you just contradicted yourself? How can you rank Floyd 12-15, then say it's hard to compare because they all had different opponents and different times. How were you able to come up with a ranking of 12-15? Bruh, if you were just talking out of your ***, then just say that. I have to take the L because you can't pin point 14 better boxers; then how the hell can you say where someone is ranked all time if you haven't even put together a list?
Also, I never said Floyd was #1, but I was definitely interested in you naming 14 better boxers. You failed; now lets just move on.
Then why not say 1-15? I know you can't name 14 better boxers, that's why I called you out...

People complain about him going after smaller guys in Floyd, Canelo (really isn't smaller), and Cotto. But they want him to fight a guy whose last fight was at 172, and who fought in the Olympics at 178You guys would rather see GGG go up in weight and fight instead of unifying the belts in his class?
-Drew
You said this, you "called me out". It's obvious you have resentment towards me man...other people have different opinions than yours but you don't say anything (or at least be negative towards them).
I was giving the example because I didn't know where to exactly put Floyd Mayweather between 1-15...It would take some time to think, so why would I list out all the boxers? Don't you know there are numerous other boxing greats out there to fit that 15? And since when was a top 15 a bad thing like you seem to imply it? Just allow the L to digest bro.
Apparently your username is letsgetit, but it looks to me, that you don't get it at all.

GGG isn't a huge middleweight. He only rehydrates to like 170 on fight night. Canelo will actually probably outweigh him when they fight.
