I'm Better Than Muhammad Ali and Sugar Ray- Floyd Mayweather
The 38-year-old welterweight, who is undefeated in 47 professional
fights, plans to cement his legacy by beating Manny Pacquiao when the
two meet at the MGM Grand in Las Vegas on May 2 in the most anticipated
match of the modern era.
Pacquiao has been beaten five times in his career but has won world titles at six different weights, while Mayweather’s flawless record means he is rarely modest about his abilities.
Mayweather says he has already eclipsed the careers of Robinson and Ali, the man widely regarded as the greatest boxer in the history of the sport.
Robinson is regularly cited as the greatest 'pound-for-pound' fighter and is the commonly-accepted gold standard for non-heavyweights with 173 wins in 200 professional bouts.
“No one can ever brainwash me to make me believe that Sugar Ray Robinson and Muhammad Ali were better than me,” Mayweather.
