Mayweather is better than Sweet Pea

[SweetScience]

Anyone agree?

Mayweather better skilled all around and defensively is better IMO. Pea was badly hurt by uncle Roger and tasted the canvas quite a few times.

Mayweather is the smarter fighter inside and outside the ring, beats him in longevity as well.Say what you want about Mayweather but the man is one of the most disciplined athletes of all time.

Time do give the man his due, he's right up there with the greatest of all time.

no, not really

[illmaticfighter]

floyd doesnt get knocked down as much as pea does ill give him that. but nah i wouldnt say floyd is greater than pea or vice versa

[A_Jeffrey]

no, not greater, who did Floyd beat? he's resume is not that good.

If you want to say Whitaker beat Chavez (in spite of the BS scorecard), Sweet Pea only has one hall of fame fighter on his resume.
Mayweather beat De La Hoya, Marquez and Mosley, three future HOFers right there, Gatti a guy already in the hall, and Cotto who is a borderline case. Five to one.

Sweet Pea had titles in four divisions, compared with Mayweather's five. And by the age of 33, Whitaker was already over the hill. Mayweather's still going strong at 36. I don't there really is a case to be made that Whitaker is better than Mayweather, especially after he dismantled the legitimate 154 pound champion Saturday night.
The real blemish on Mayweather's record of course is he didn't fight Pacquiao but how much blame one should attribute to him for that fight not coming off in light of the OST controversy and the issues with Arum, is highly questionable.

These are two of the best I've seen. He's certainly in Sweet Pea's neighborhood that's for sure

[baya]

that's clearly established.

[WilkinsOlajuwon]

perhaps...but its really hard to say because Pea fought much harder competition. Not a knock on Floyd.

No he's not.
