Mayweather's Defense vs. Whitaker's

[Slimey Limey]

Lowering your head below the waist is also "cheating". Pernell is more guilty of that than Floyd.

Perny was probably used to doing that outside the ring as well. just like he spend more time on his knees past his prime, just like he did outside the ring.

I believe their defense is even but will give the edge to Pernell Whitaker, due to the opposition Whitaker didn't get hit against.

Nah.... Slime was banned for being a rude ****.. Plain & simple..

With regard to the poll.. Of course it's Mayweather.. He only gets hit about once every other round..

I think Floyd's much faster punches off his rocking / rolling type defensive moves give him an edge is observable defense, where he counters with such great effect that it seems like *wow Floyd's defense is so great it sets up his offense* kind of factor that Whitaker never had. In Whitaker's favor he faced one of the best ever (Chavez) at the height of JC's powers and made him look like a tool. Whitaker's defensive subtlety was brilliant though and were he a step or too quicker I'd have given him the edge. As it was I thought them close enough to be even.

A slight exaggeration.
