    I have no idea how anyone can think Floyd's defence is better than Pea's. I'm not hating on you Dominicano, and I am a big fan of Floyd's, but I just cannot understand it. Particularly because I know you have seen all of Pernell's fights.

    There is no way in hell Pea gets caught with that right hand say against Shane, no way in hell.

    Defensively Pea >>>>>>> Floyd.

    Offensively Floyd >>>>>> Pea.

      Put it this way, ask yourself what a Pea-JLC fight would have looked like.
      Pernell would have outclassed JLC, I agree there. But you also have to take into consideration that JLC was much bigger then Floyd. Had Mayweather gotten used to the LW division, Mayweather-JLC would have looked alot different.

        You know, Pernell ate a good amount of right hands against Buddy McGirt.

          Sorry, I just see it differently. Floyd is great defensively, the best since Pea no doubt, but Whitaker was just a joke. I remember seeing some of Pea's fights for the first time and just laughing at that ****.

            That first Buddy fight was just odd though. I swear Pernell almost fought to lose in that fight. I thought he just fought a really ****** fight.

            The second fight was an absolute clinic.

              While Mayweather's display of defense is great to watch, I do prefer to watch Whitaker's. Whitaker's defense is comical man!

                I agree, then he had the nerve to showboat around the end. That could have actually been scored a draw; no lie.

                  Athletes are always getting better in every sport, always getting bigger, faster, stronger. Whoever the best is today is always better than whoever the best was 10, 20 years ago. Floyd is the greatest offensive and defensive boxer of all time. In 20 years, someone might come along who's better than Floyd, maybe his little nephew.

                    I scored that for Whitaker by 1 or 2 rounds if I remember correctly, but yeah Pea was asking for it in that fight. He redeemed himself in the second though, that might be my favourite Whitaker fight.

                      It is ******ed to believe that fighters of 20 years ago are not pretty much directly comparable to fighters of today.
