Larry says Mayweather beats Pernell Whiitaker and badly

[Dan...]

dlh beat sweat pea and pernell was only 33..castillo aint no bum and floyd beat him twice..pernell has been dropped and can be hit..floyd beats him

Dude, a prime Pernell pretty much couldn't be hit. You say he was only 33 like he wasn't past his prime. He was miles past it and still gave a younger, hungrier and bigger bull in Oscar all he could handle and some actually had him winning that fight (not myself).

A prime on prime matchup between Pernell and Floyd at 135 say really wouldn't be close. I maintain that Pernell in his prime beats any 135 pounder I have ever seen in the ring, and that certainly includes Floyd.

[Joe2608]

Floyd is too inactive, he throws very little punches in a round unless he thinks he has his opponent hurt. I mean Hatton is so one dimensional it took him ages to get him out of there and he kept giving up rounds by not throwing.

It's hard to score rounds for people who don't punch.

135 Duran eats Whitaker for lunch. And I like Pernell...

I agree. I think Pernell would beat Mayweather comfortably i really do.

Obviously that is the general opinion, I just disagree that's all. I am all over Pernell's nuts though and I will admit Duran isn't exactly my favourite guy, so I won't rule bias out.

like i said floyd beats pernell..im sticking to my guns..the thread says larry says floyd beast pernell and im not changing my mind...your opinion isnt mine..and alot of people agree with me as you see

Yea 147 Floyd that is. And u seen wat happened when Floyd let his hands go rite? I do think Pernell wins at 147 but below that things can get interesting.

Yeah, I won't accept that this is even close to a pick'em fight. A prime Whitaker has Floyd covered in all areas IMO. UD - 10 rounds to 2 or somewhere around there.

[Dynamite Kid]

Duran could not cope with lateral movement Leonard proved it as did Benitez and Kirkland Laing. I dont know who i would pick in that fight though, because Duran was an animal at Lightweight.
