Floyd's Hit / Don't get hit % compared to other All Time Greats

[really]

Floyd has a connect rate of 46% (best among active fighters)...

His opponents, versus him, have a connect rate of 16% (This means out of 100 punches, they WIFF on 84 of them .... The best in HISTORY)



This means mayweather, in his prime (over 10 fights) has a connect differential of +30% ... The best of any fighter in history.



How do the greats stack up?


Marvin Hagler - +17%
Sugar Ray Lenoard - +13%
Roberto Duran - +8%
Thomas Hearns - +6%
Muhamed Ali - +4%





So, Yea, I'm sure these n1ggas in his weight class would hand him his ass... When he's hitting 100 punches to Lenoards 40 ....


So even if Lenoard hit 2 TIMES AS HARD AS FLOYD (which he's doesn't), he still wouldn't do as much damage in a fight with Floyd as Floyd would do him.



Men Lie, Women Lie, Nu........ Ehhh f*ck it you know the drill....

 

[Ed MOTHERFUCKING G]

He is the greatest defensive boxer of all time. People who dont acknowledge his greatness as a technician expose themselves immediately.

Like I said in the other thread where you claim Floyd is at LEAST Top 3-Top 5 All-time





Advanced Metric Stats dont belong in a gladiator sport such as Boxing breh


The game of boxing is not JUST about "hit/dont get hit".....it's to win at all causes.


You are not accouting for who opponents have faced, the era they are fighting in (15 rounds vs 12 rounds), the actual time they had to prepare for the bouts, punching power, or ANY of that with your "stats"


According to every boxing historian who has ever been quoted on boxing, there are only 2 people who's name can be argued as GOAT: Sugar Ray Robinson or Muhammad Ali.


You're right. Sugar Ray Robinson went 40-0 before losing his 1st fight to one of the greatest fighters ever....dikk LaMotta. You know what your "stats" dont account for to try and put Floyd over him? Is that Sugar Ray Robinson fought Jake LaMotta 3 times in a 6 month span INCLUDING twice in a 3 week span (February 5th, 1943 and February 26th, 1943).


That's not including the fact that in between that 3 week span of 2-5 and 2-26....he had ANOTHER FIGHT, against California Jackie Wilson on 2-19


So, in a 3 week span, he fought 3 fights...2 of em against a HOFer.


His entire career is like that and so are all the other legendary fighters from back then.


PLEASE dont make me break down how Ali, Henry Armstrong, Joe Louis, and Willie Pep were all better as well

If you wanna say Floyd is Top 3 all-time defensive fighter......I would agree.



But Top 3-5 all-time boxer period?

 

[Dr Dre's ProductionSkills]

Lol srl hearns duran hagler all fought each other

Mays greats include guerrero oetiz baldomirs mosley and cotto lol


If may wouldve fought duran 35 srl 47 hearns 47 hed be 0 and 3 hagler would never happen

U can be a great defense fighter if ur fighting glorifed sparring sessions with carefully selected fighters

 

[yo moms]

that stat geek sh1t has no place in boxing....it only takes one punch to change a fight regardless of what has happened prior to it

You know what else I found.....I found the link


CompuBox – Plus/Minus


So, currently...Mayweather is at +24 for his career and Alvarez is 2nd in the sport of boxing at +18.


That's why "Advanced Stats" dont mean anything in boxing. There's no way in the WORLD you could convince me that Saul Alvarez is the 2nd best defensive boxer in the sport of boxing today.



NO WAY




lol at Amir Khan being 9 on the "hit/dont get hit" ratings



Wow

 

[Yuzo Lightheart]

what is whitaker plus minus

 

[PS5 Pro]

He is the greatest defensive boxer of all time. People who dont acknowledge his greatness as a technician expose themselves immediately.

I agree, but we all know you only saying things like that because he comes from a place that is shyt

 

[Lavish]

How can anyone say floyd aint the GOAT when he's never lost

dude is undefeated and his the best punching accuracy of all time. also the best defense of all time. so whats left?

n!ggas need to stop hating and give this man his props.

 

[Yuzo Lightheart]

quite a few fighters greater than floyd defensively two from the top of my head are wilfredo benitez and pernell whitaker. i believe roy at 160 and 168 had a plus minus that was crazy as well he was the first fighter in compubox history to box a round without getting hit once yet this all has to be put in context because he fought a lot of cans too. but go watch floyd vs demarcus colrey and emanuel agustus and i never saw benitez or whitaker in a brawl like that or get touched like that and they fought many atg who is atg on floyds record? and compare the quality of opponent between each with honesty...
