HEY. Just saw your reply post to a guy who asked "WHY DOES EVERYONE SAY NO BUT DOESN'T EXPLAIN WHY?" I like how you responded because it was dead on. These younger fans who don't know their history thinks MAYWEATHER is a boxing GOD. Whoever started this thread has to be a MAYWEATHER fan. HAS TO BE. Anyway, here was my post on the topic.....
"Hey. IT'S GOD-FR33 HERE FROM MKE. Just read your post. I agree with that and disagree. Here's why. I think it also boils down to LEVEL OF OPPOSITION. WHY has MAYWEATHER looked to be so great all these years? WHO HAS HE FOUGHT? AND WHEN DID HE FIGHT THEM? WHITAKER is the greatest defender who ever laced up gloves. Whoever started this thread hasn't been a REAL fan of the sport for long. I know that because he mentions MAYWEATHER'S name in the same breath as WHITAKER to be honest. WHITAKER defended against the very best of his era. He dodged noone. If the public thought someone was better, he called them out. MAYWEATHER is a good fighter, but he is not great. He's a hall of famer but not an all-time great. It's his own fought and that's as honest as I can be mate. He's smart about picking who he fights and when. Here's my post on it........"For you guys who say that MAYWEATHER is a better defensive fighter than WHITAKER, HOW LONG HAVE YOU GUYS BEEN WATCHING BOXING? WHITAKER is the greatest defensive fighter EVER! PERIOD! WILLIE PEP is number 2, and MAYWEATHER is 3rd. WHITAKER was a boxing GOD and in my top 5 to ever lace up gloves. Would MAYWEATHER look this GOOD had he been fighting fighters in their primes? I DON'T THINK SO. IT was hard to hit WHITAKER anywhere. HEAD and BODY. He had BILLION-DOLLAR LEGS, whereas MAYWEATHER doesn't have the ebst legs. Never did. That's WHY it's easy to hit him to the body. He is also suceptable to a GOOD jab. He was quicker than WHITAKER, but WHITAKER was far the overall better fighter. He never LOSS once in his PRIME. You can't say that about MAYWEATHER because he hasn't fought A-LEVEL competition. It's like those who even mention KOBE BRYANT and MICHAEL JORDAN in the same sentence. THERE IS NO COMPARISON, and that's a whole nother conversation. I'M GOD-FR33 FROM MKE by the way."

Pernall defense was better, if he sit back like floyd all the time he would almost never get tagged too, but he didn't do that, he atttacked, he tooked risks at times. And Mayweather copied some of his tricks, he beat the **** out of the other Gayweathers, if floydy didnt have guys like him to nick the moves from then he would be a no one
Sweet Pea was a great defensive fighter and I would say the greatest defensive fighter, but these 2 fighters have different styles of defense. Mayweather answers with great counter punching after making an opponent miss. So I would say sweet pea is the greatest defensive fighter but I would say Mayweather is more effective by making a fighter pay for missing.
