It’s crazy how two NBA players, who never even got a chance to play against each other and built their game in two different generations will forever be pitted against each other.

Floyd Mayweather, who is aware of the greatest of all-time conversations himself, also decided to pick sides in an interview with Shannon Sharpe. He said, “I love LeBron. But one thing about Michael Jordan, he is going to come out there every night to kill you. Every night. LeBron feels like he playing nonchalant sometimes.”
“LeBron James, I am going to choose, if they played against each other, LeBron James is too big and strong and too fast. But if I had to choose one, I’d go with Michael Jordan. I gotta go with somebody that will give it their all, every night,” he concluded.
