Who is or was the more dominant athlete in their respective sport, Mayweather or LeBron?
>>
>>67727781
Mayweather

What kind of question is this? He never lost or even got knocked down except for that one slip against...Judah maybe?
>>
Mayweather isn't 2 - 4 in heavyweight championship fights
>>
>>67727816
mayweather is 0-0 in heavyweight championship fights.
>>
LeBron

he doesn't make his own schedule which means he can't dodge anybody
>>
>>67727781
>mayweather

lel should have taken the top fights when it mattered, nobody will give a shit about him

he was the undefeated champion of boxing's WNBA, so amazing.

>>67727846
He has a 49 - 0 record

>>67727781
Has Lebron ever lost?

Yes?

Well, there's your answer.
>>
>>67727894
doesn't change that he's 0-0 in heavyweight championships

'no'
Heavyweight = Western Conference
Cruiserweight = Eastern Conference

Welterweight = WNBA

Doesn't change that he's not 2 - 4 in heavyweight championship matches either

With out a doubt it's Floyd. LeBrons not even close to him.

Floyd is in the prime Tiger Woods and prime Roger Fedderer category.

pretty sure the East has won some NBA championships

meanwhile no welterweight is getting his bitch ass in the ring with Klitschko.

I'd say yes. If basketball were an individual sport he'd be Floyd, but his teams have generally been pretty shit.

>>
>>67727781

no, mayweather always stepped up to the plate when it mattered, i.e. Canelo, De la Hoya, Pacquiao( never mind thats a huge blemish on his career), Cotto ( even when he was going to jail right after). Mayweather always prepared properly and believed in his skills and never choked.

lebron always fucks up when it matters i.e. the finals.

Furthermore, Mayweather was more dominant for a longer period of time in a physically more taxing sport, Lebron already seems to be slipping, Mayweather didn't lose a step until arguably his last few fights when he was in his late 30's

>tfw if you got into peak physical condition and learned how to cut weight properly, you would probably be a welterweight at 5'11.

this meme needs to die. The average man would fight at 147 if he could control his diet and trained as hard a boxer. Lots of welterweights blow up to 190+ in between fights. Don't be mad cus you can't dedicate yourself to a craft enough to lose a few pounds.

How is boxing more physically taxing?
>>
>>67729392

how is it not, its fighting.

Go play a game of pick up basketball, then go spar. Tell me which one leaves you feeling more tired and more sore.

protip: its boxing.

when boxers are in camp they pretty much train all day, no booze, no junk food, etc. Running, training, conditioning, sparring, sleeping.

NBA players are in the club during the playoffs, and their are tons of stories of players showing up hungover. furthermore, if you get tired you can get subbed out. If you get tired in boxing, you get hit a lot more.

fuck off floyd

a guy 6'2 200 would kill you in the ring

boxing is a total joke

the NFL, NHL, MLB, and NBA dont have separate divisions for people who CANT compete at the highest level
>>
>Guyz i cant make it in the NFL, is there a "feather weight" NFL for weak manlets i can "dominate"?
>>
>>67729482

that wasn't my point. My point was that a boxer who weighs in at 147 is not a manlet. That same person would be an average size if they weren't a boxer.

Manlet classes don't start till everything below lightweight in my opinion.

Basketball players perform on the highest level more often than boxers do. They are on the court exhausting themselves way more than a boxer is in the ring, and they are always on the court, in the gym, running, training, conditioning, and sleeping just like boxers.
>>
>>67729665
>they are always on the court, in the gym, running, training, conditioning, and sleeping just like boxers.
They're not. Clubbing and drinking is extremely common during the season and even the play offs.
>>
>>67729579
I understand fully, and its pretty embarassing that lesser athletes create their own division because they can't compete with genetically gifted athletes
>>
>>67729579
>trying to reason with cuckhoopers

remember these people are literally mad that there is too much skill involved in basketball now
>>
>>67729665

boxers are sparring 3 times a week. Its not even comparable in terms of the wear and tear on your body. Most boxers are only in their prime for a few years before they can't cut weight or their knees are messed up or there hands keep breaking. Floyd was an anomaly.

Im telling you man, I've boxed (at the lowest level lol) and played basketball. Its not even comparable.
>>
>>67729727
Floyd lasted as long as he did because he was as good at dodging in the ring as he was outside the ring
>>
Mayweather is the literal embodiment of why you shouldn't give niggas money.
>>
>>67729826

famingo, no one gave him that money lol, he hustled his ass off and took it. Also he is in a sport that people literally die competing in, I think he deserves to ball out.

Mayweather has gone through a lot of effort in his day to avoid fighting more competent opponents and in some cases even waits until they are old in excess of 7 year delays.
>>
>>67729840
He'll be broke in 10 years.

>>67729894
Lebron has played his entire career in the eastern conference

>born 5'5

when will they learn
>>
>>67729482
You realize that boxers choose to fight at there weight classes because it is best suited to their fighting and training style right.

If they want to gain or lose weight they just change there diet and training. It's not like the guy just cant get bigger he doesn't want to or need to.

If someone is 6"2' 200 lbs and 3-0 they are probably not going to beat mayweather because they have no experience.
>>
>>67729579
>i NEED special protections because i am inferior to bigger stronger athletes
this is how you know combat sports are not real sports

Mayweather is my choice, he's an all time great and the best defensive boxer ever by a mile.

Floyd is a snake though, he's avoided fighters that could beat him, i.e. prime Pacquiao.

LeBron is an all time great, but he'll never be Jordan/Bird/Magic tier. No clutch.
>>
>>67729697
You don't think boxers do that either? Just look at the shit mayweather used to flaunt on social media? Cmon man give me a break

>>67729727
Yeah but you only did both on the lowest level, so you can't really comprehend how both would be on the highest level
