    I don't know about that, but boxing seemed more exciting back in the day.

    Mayweather is a chump. I bet there are robots that would beat his ass. Tyson included.

    Who wants to watch some 110 pound girls scrap it out, give me the heavy weights of the past era, not the divas that are so called "pros" today.

    Please name one hall of fame fighter who was in his prime when mayweather beat him? Boxing aficionados like myself and all over the world know that mayweather is not even top 25 in boxing history

    Because people don't care for his style or personality doesn't make him any less of a fantastic boxer.

    plenty of good to very good boxers even some great ones the past 20 yrs. floyd was a master at DUCKING them in their prime. he waited till they were all old. or he fought guys like canelo way too early (canelo was only 22)

    Come on man. Floyd would have easily beat both of them.

    He would have waited till they were on the decline, or way past their prime and fight them one or two fights before their career was over

    Ive been a boxing purist for many years also, Floyd has been calculating as many smart fighters in the past have been with opponents, doesnt mean he thought he'd lose to them. Your question is really not based on Floyd rather the landscape of boxing during his time at specific weights, that being, what were the available HOF boxers who were in their prime during those specific times, guaranteeing both is not an easy thing to find in any era. Here are the HOF boxers Floyd has fought and some whom I think are HOF worthy.

    Genaro Hernandez- HOF inducted
    Jose Luis Castillo -Should be in HOF IMO
    Diego Corrales - Will probably eventually get in.
    Arturo Gatti - HOF inducted
    Oscar De La Hoya - HOF inducted
    Ricky Hatton - Will probably eventually get in.
    Juan Manuel Marquez - A shoe in once available
    Shane Mosley - A shoe in once available
    Miguel Cotto - A shoe in once available
    Saul Alvarez - If career continues as such he will get in

    Met and talked with Hagler back around 1983-5 when I was working summer hoop camps and his kids attended.
    This was right around his prime and pretty close to the SRLeonard fight that was awesome, but kind of controversial outcome.
    Anyway, the one thing I took away from standing next to him.....he was a midget, 5`7" maybe?

    Leonard never gave Hagler rematch because he was scared of them

    Hagler in reality it was probably the best fighter In their era

    What!? How dare you question the bona fides of "Cherry Picker" Mayweather! He would peck Tyson's eyes out!

    Read my question again. Was dlh in his prime when he fought him? No. Mosley? No. Canelo? Too young (22) at time of fight. Hatton a hofer? Lmfao. Gatti had already been in too many wars. Diego gets in hall maybe posthumously out of pity for his death.

    Your case is weak man. Mayweather carefully picks opponents he can beat due to them being too young or too old or the style plays into his. He wants nothing to do with the amir khans and pacquiao s of the world because they're too fast and he knows they'll out point him and pacman might well use that c power in both hands to ko him
