Carl Froch fights just like Sugar Ray Leonard, watch both closely you notice they have very similar footwork, if anything i would say Froch is a bit quicker!
Whitaker was a jittery southpaw who used lots of energy showboating and throwing tons of punches. Sometimes he'd showboat instead of throwing a counter-punch
Mayweather is calm, conserves his energy and takes every opportunity he can to get off first.
They both have amazing defense, but they really aren't similar at all.
