[B.U.R.N.E.R]

Mayweather UD.

[Scott9945]

I like Whitaker at 135, but Mayweather at 140+.

[-EX-]

Pernell wins at 135...loses at 147...

Either guy could win at any weight...this thread gets made all the time...

man---like i've said a thouusand tiimes before---floyd is too good for pernell because floyd's overall speed and defense is better than sweet peas-------floyd is a much better counterpuncher and blocker than pernell----people get sweet pea twisted sometimes----he is a dynamic fighter---floyd is too complex a fighter for pernell-----floyd has more power-----fights better off of the ropes and has better balance than pernell and that's saying a lot because pernell is a great defensive fighter when it comes to ducking punches, but pernell tended to get too unorthodox for his own good-----floyd is a better balanced fighter and better inside fighter, and pea was amazing when it came to body punching, but floyd is the stronger fighter with better discipline on the inside when it came to overall defense, and i don't care who doesn't like this claim------floyd has the better distance when it comes to skill----he knows his distance better than pea did----floyd would beat pea and it wouldn't be as close as you people think---trust me-----

pea avoided punches better by dodging them but he got sloppy and lazy at times---and against floyd, who is a master sharp shooter, much more precise a puncher than pea was, that would be suicide for pernell, and sweet pea was a monster---he fought everybody, but his dominance against the top competition was nothing compared to floyd's dominance----floyd was more dominant, because he was better disciplined than pernall----and still is---

Close early but Whitaker being southpaw gives Floyd problems and as the fight goes on Whitaker figures him out and cruises in the late rounds to a decisoion. Whitaker frustrates Floyd.

No way Floyd is better defensively or faster than Pernell. Floyd is good at what he does but he is not in Pernell's league.

thats the problem, present fighters dont get the credit past fighters get. floyd is better than sweet pea defensively and is much stronger. sweetpea was a master of defense but he would get hit every now and then. floyd will make you look like a fool in the ring

[Carpe Diem]

He would beat Floyd the same way he defeated Floyd's uncle, Roger Mayweather. Just kidding, but Whitaker would win.

I never saw Whitaker get hit like floyd did against and older Mosley or like he did against Judah. I was always a DelaHoya fan and I watched that fight when it happened and I have the fight still today, and he didn't even get hit like that against a prime DeLaHoya or a prime Trinidad for that matter.

Anybody who thinks Floyd will win is a ****in ****** and knows nothing about boxing. Hoe does Floyd when this fight? He damn sure won't win this fight throwing 20-30 punches a round.

Pernell would be elusive all day on the outside throwing jabs and out working him with jabs and winning rounds that way. Pernell wins a decision here by outworking Floyd with the jab. Probably won't be exciting but Floyd doesn't let his hands go near enough to beat Whitaker.
