    The lowest I would put him in is # 3 amongst those, below Whitaker and Pep.

    But I give him # 1.
    STFU. Wilfred benitez is consider my many experts 1 of the best right Along with Pep and Whitaker, you can say whatever the **** you want, but Floyds defense is no where near Benitez defense. The guy would be standing in front of you and still you couldnt hit him.

    Look at the bold and say who is more bias. GTFO!!!!!!!!!!!!

        I love Wilfred but his defense is not better than Floyd's, my dude. The fact that he has been stopped disqualifies him from being #1, I would say.

          I will have to disagree, look who Benitez fought when and where, and who Mayweather fought.!!!!!!

              I got him second behind Sweet Pea.

              Sweet Pea was the only fighter who's defense was as effective going forward as backwards. Floyd's defense is excellent, but its almost too second nature - Whitaker's was the best blend of instinct, improv, and technique ever.

                    Resume doesn't matter if were strictly discussing defense. I agree though, prime Leonard and Hearns are better fighters than Chico and Castillo.

                      You must really hate Floyd.
