VS
Rules:
- Welterweight bout
- Both in their primes
- 12 rounds
As good as Mayweather is, Sugar Ray was better, Floyd in my opinion will go down as one of the greatest defensive fighters and one of the greatest counter punchers of all time, But I do not think he would of lived with Robinson in his prime, His hand speed and power would end the fight before it gets to the last two rounds, Of course that is just my personal opinion.
My bias against Mayweather is too strong.
@comicstooge: Man you know how this goes...
First of all, Mayweather's prime was 135, the OG Sugar Ray destroyed Light Heavyweights well past his prime (lost, but that was due to exhaustion, nothing to do with his opponent).
Mayweather has looked worse against fighters that aren't even a fraction of the OG Sugar Ray's talent and skill.
Remember what I said about Tommy Hearns... If he had a chin he'd be the greatest fighter of all time... Well, meet Tommy Hearns with a chin, goes by the name Sugar Ray Robinson.
