Floyd Mayweather Reiterates Muhammad Ali Claim

The American, unbeaten in 47 professional fights, created a storm earlier this week when he implied he was the best fighter in boxing history.
He said: “No one can ever brainwash me to make me believe that Sugar Ray Robinson and Muhammad Ali were better than me.”
And just a few days later he has repeated his comments, despite being blasted by his critics.
Mayweather and Pacquiao meet in Las Vegas in a fight worth £332m, and the 38-year-old old is unconcerned at the growing criticism.
He said: "No disrespect to Muhammad Ali but he did it in one division. I just look at Ali's career when he fought Leon Spinks and lost to a fighter with seven fights.
"There were some other fights he lost and he's still known as 'The Greatest' because that's what he put out there.
"He called himself 'The Greatest' and I call myself TBE (The Best Ever). I'm pretty sure I'll get criticised for what I said but I couldn't care less. I couldn’t care less about the backlash."
