Skill + Resume, Floyd >>>> Whitaker

[junior gong]

His win over Azumah Nelson alone takes a big fat poo on anything Floyd has done up to now.

The idea that Mayweather's career is better than Sweet Pea's is so ridiculous.

Resume no, but I do feel Floyd is a **** hair more skilled than SP.

It's not by a landslide but beating greats like Nelson and Chavez as impressively as Whitaker did is more than any win Mayweather can account for. Vers is right though, Floyd has dominated the best available opposition out there and is expected to face the Garcia-Matthysse winner granted he gets past Canelo...it's insane that Floyd is still going this hard after so many years. Still, Whitaker is clearly the greater fighter.

Floyd gets smoked by Whitaker, who ya'll kidding......

Resumes aren't about titles and belt collecting: Resumes are about who you beat and when you beat them.

So we should revisit Manny's resume bc anyone claiming he ranks higher than Floyd is ******ed

Get real. Floyd beats pernell

[James_Toney]

anyone who thinks pernell whitaker is better or even on floyd's level, has never watched pernell and has only watched youtube clips....

pernell was a great champion.... but floyd's more complete....

southpaws always have an advantage.... they're always more awkward from a purely technical standpoint... added to that all southpaws vary stylistically so you can't really prepare as well, cos you can't get the sparring...

pernell would have never been as defensively good had he been an orthodox fighter.... floyd's textbook brilliant and then some, he's slick, he's quick and he's a master.

LOL, the irony...

Don't even think that the TS ever saw a Whitaker fight

Most of the posters on this site have never seen a Sweet Pea fight.
