Better DEFENSIVE fighter: Mayweather or Whitaker?

[Luciano]

The answer is obvious...Whitaker...anybody who thinks different is an idiot

Whittaker .. Whittaker fought legends
Hatton is no JC Chavez

Now see I attribute Whitaker's lack of knockouts to his unbelievable competition. For every fighter on Mayweather's record I think I could largely name a better, more hardened fighter on Whitaker's.

pernell when he wasn't coked up was just amazing in his prime, floid is slick but he's no whitaker. the drag queen caught floid with a few good shots, he never landed that **** on whitaker when they fought

Yeah, and Oscar was much faster, younger, and more active when he fought Whitaker.

They are both defensive masters. That's like asking who is blacker, the pot or the kettle.

True indeed

Ive said this before, Floyd prefers to stay at a distance and therefore is usually not in punching range to be hit.
Whitaker preffered to be closer and not only slipped shots, but blocked alot of punches with his gloves.

Floyd is one slippery bastard on the ropes, and his defence and reactions are great, but Whitaker was so tricky and the way he made De La Hoya miss those flurries was special.
