    Comparing Willie Pep to Floyd Mayweather?

    As you can see I haven't been on these forums for very long, but how do people, especially people who LOOK like they seem well into boxing history and boxing it's self. ****in, compare the most overrated, cherry picking, media blown Floyd Mayweather against an ATG such as Willie Pep.

    I see people on the forums to go as far and say Floyd had a better defence/footwork then Pep.

    Can anyone, give a half decent reason why Mayweather would be better then an ATG.

    Out of curiosity, exactly how many Pep fights have you watched?

      I don't see many, if any, saying Mayweather is greater than Pep.

        PBF is a great fighter but please don't put him on a level with Pep, that's only the ignorant fight fans that don't know the history of the sport.

          I've seen enough Pep fights and enough Floyd fights to know that it's silly to even put Floyd on the same level as pep, let alone put him above pep.

                Pep v Famechon,
                Pep v Saddler,
                Pep v Saddler 3,
                Pep v Walton,
                Pep v Chavez,
                Different highlight reels and film analysis of Pep's footwork.

                Unfortunately much like Sugar Ray, it's really hard to find decent Pep fights seeing as how old a boxer he is. A lot of his recorded work comes from when he was out of prime, yet still better then 80% of boxers today.

                  Nobody compares to Floyd...for he his the biggest Coward in boxings history. No one will ever come close to stealing that spot.
