Skill + Resume, Floyd >>>> Whitaker

[mathed]

Get real. Floyd beats pernell

Floyd won't do a damn thing, he wouldn't even fight Pac, wouldn't fight prime Cotto, prime Margs, asked for a catchweight against another 154 pound champ for a 154 pound title......yeah...Floyd can't even conquer his own fear much less a legend like Pernell.

all those guys you mentioned could punch.....

floyd would love to fight a feather fisted fighter.

Skill for skill, Pernell by a hair, due to not having to hold and clinch in the pocket, and being better at defense/offense fluidity.

Resume, not even close.

This thread is about as bad as the one about Tyson being fleetfooted

Floyd likes those feather fists, maybe Malignaggi will be next in line after Canelo, who knows.

Remind me, when was Mayweather an undisputed champion? At any weight?

Though rarely thought of in these parts, unifying all the belts at any certain weight does a lot for a fighters legacy and resume when considering his place in history.

Its obvious this guy is an alt of some paquiao troll.

Whitaker definitely beat Chavez and Ramirez the first time...IMO the fight with Oscar could have gone either way or been a draw...it wasnt a travesty.
If you look at their resumes they are comparable.

Both are about dead even in skill, top 5 defensive fighters all time and very underrated offensively and great counter punchers. Mastered the Nuances of the sport....defeated 17 world champions

( if you exclude the WBO) World champions/ Titlists defeated: Mayweather: 17, Whitaker: 14

Lineal titles: Mayweather:3(130, 135, 145) Whitaker: 2(135, 147)

Alpabet titles in weight class: Mayweather, 5....Whitaker, 4

top 5 official wins: Mayweather: ODLH, Hatton, G. Hernandez, Castillo, Corrales

Whitaker: Vazquez, McGirt, Nelson, Mayweather, Ramirez


Mayweather has won 22 titles fights undefeated and Whitaker is 19-2-1 in title fights

Its like comparing apples to oranges...who ever you like I wouldnt argue but to say its a land slide either shows you DKSAB


I say this if Mayweather defeats Canelo and wins his forth lineal title and retires undefeated....he passes Whitaker in resume-wise/legacy in my book...by the numbers he already has, if you add in his skill, longevity and his record. He deserves to past PEA Who is one of my all time favs
