    Whitaker beats him like he beat his uncle Roger.

      Floyd wins easily, and Sweet Pea is one of my all-time favorite fighters. Sweet Pea looked best by getting the other guy to throw wildly, Mayweather is going to land that straight lead right over and over.

        That crack addict doesn't have the dedication to beat Floyd Jr.

Yo no se, meng
          Whitaker is the most precise body puncher I've ever seen, so it's hard to imagine a situation where it's smooth sailing for Mayweather as the fight progresses. Whitaker's jab is key, he'll need to be very consistent with it, that will help him turn Mayweather. Still a tough one to pick because I also know Mayweather can time him with right hands.

          If I had the opportunity to, I wouldn't want to see it, yeah I sound like a fanboy but it is what it is

                You know Dazed, Whitaker has always been one of my favorite fighters. But the other day I was watching Whitaker vs Haugen. After analyzing that fight I believe Mayweather would have edged Pernell by decision.

                I know that might be blasphemous for some lol but Mayweather is a truly great fighter regardless of the fact that he has so many people hating him. I think he is slightly sharper than Pernell defensively.

                      I see you're just as befuddled as I am trying to assess the styles meshing
