FLOYD MAYWEATHER: I'M BETTER THAN ALI

Floyd Mayweather Jnr has sensationally claimed he is a more complete boxer than Muhammad Ali, the man universally known as The Greatest.

Mayweather, 32, returns to the ring against Juan Manuel Marquez in Las Vegas next weekend for the first time since he defeated Ricky Hatton in December 2007.

The Pretty Boy, unbeaten after 39 fights, sniped: "They say Ali was the greatest, right? "Well, to be the greatest you have to be a complete fighter. Ali was a fighter who never threw one body shot, not one, and he lost to Leon Spinks, but people seem to forget about that.

"I'm not saying he wasn't a hell of a fighter and I'm not saying I'm the greatest of all time. They say Ali is the greatest of all-time.

"They called him TBE - The Best Ever - and I don't want to take anyone else's title. But I'm one of a kind, I'm just totally different to Ali.''
