    DLH beating Pea means nothing. Pea was one foot out the door when they fought while Oscar was at his physical peak. And like most people, I thought Pernell won. Not quite the indictment you want it to be.

    You're right. Jose Louis Castillo is no bum. What then, should we call Julio Cesar Chavez? Azumah Nelson?

    Pernell has been dropped so Floyd beats him? Logic much?
    no im just saying pernell isnt untouchable like people claim..he was a great fighter..but floyd better in every department

      Floyd is far better than many are giving him credit for. His defense was more complete, though Pernell had the better reflexes and is a tad bit faster. This fight could happen 10 times and it would finish 5-5 I believe, which is more than I can say for most fighters if they got in the ring with Pea 10 times.

        PBF is a better inside fighter than Pernell...

          You know I am not sure that it true. Floyd did such amazing work against Hatton, who is a master fighting on the inside, that you have to say he would be able to compete inside agaisnt Pea.

              No he isn't.

              Whitaker is probably the best fighter ive ever seen in the pocket. Mayweather is good in the pocket defensively, but Whitaker is good offensively and defensively fighting in the pocket.

                  Like someone said, the Hatton fight, PBF wasn't just defending in the inside, he was beating Hatton badly there as well as on the outside, and close up is where Hatton wins all his matches.

                      I gotta say man, you got it right.

                      Seriously, Floyd is not better on the inside than Pea. My god, I can't believe that is a fkn debate tbh.
