if people say whitakers defense was better than floyds

[larryx]

then why the hell was whitaker on his ass so much??? no excuses about drugs(that was his decision) whitaker was not a better fighter than floyd..damn sure not smarter(floyd aint no cokehread) people never give present day fighters their credit..people actually say joe louis would beat klitsckho..man please fighters didnt have power hieght and skills like that back in the day

[WhoreUs]

fought better competition would be my guess.

compare julio cesar chavez to jose luis castillo.

compare carlos baldomir to tito trinidad.

hell! compare the oscar floyd fought to the oscar pernell fought.

How many times had Whitaker been knocked down when he was 31 years old? Maybe once or twice.

Louis didn't have power or skills? Well that's your opinion.

sorry Larry....defensively, pernell >>>>>> floyd

[rizkybizness]

Oh lord......... not this again.

In defense, Pernell was better than Floyd. Your comparing Floyd who fought good competition to Whitaker who faced guys like Trinidad, DLH, Nelson, Chavez, Mcgirt, Haugen.

[IMDAZED]

Oscar De La Hoya...down more times than Margarito.

I guess he has worse defense.

[Kid McCoy]

George Chuvalo was never knocked down in 93 fights. Ergo he was the greatest defensive fighter of all time, way better than defenceless bums like Mayweather!
