    Prime Floyd Mayweather vs. Prime Pernell Whitaker at 147

    Who do you think wins in this fantasy fight? Floyd said that as a 17 yrs.old kid he sparred with Pernell back in 1994.

    Floyd would probably edge Pea because his right hand lands cleaner but it could go either way.

      As much as I want to pick floyd-I always have thought sweet pea would likely beat him.

          Floyd at 130-135 was demonic. I don't think anyone at those weights could live with him.

            Their boxing skills are unquestionable but I will go to sweet pea coz of an edge in offense.

              Pea certainly didn't have the edge in offense

                I'd go with Floyd because he has more power. Especially at 130-35

                  I don't think Whitaker was at his best at 147. But style-wise, this sucks for both guys. But I think Floyd really struggles with Whitaker's movement and southpaw jab. I could see Pea losing a controversial split decision that most believe he should have won.

                    To me Floyd lands cleaner and judge friendly punches which will would probably give him the edge a razor tight back and forth fight.
