    The video didn't work for me. He may have been a runner as I haven't watched much of him and I will watch some of his fights. No guy with all those fights could possibly be a coward. He could run but he couldn't hide. He fought the deadly Saddler 4 times.

      Pep would exchange Floyd NEVER punches with his opponents.
      Floyd picks his own opponents and is capable of stopping some of them but he prefers to be safe and "spars" instead of "close the fight"!

      Floyd Mayweather "isn't a pimple on Pep's azz"!
      I can tell you this Larry you could never call Pep a coward to his face
      you could never call Pep a coward to my face either !!

      Theres always something about fans ....................

      Ray.
      Floyd never punches with his opponent? tell Hatton that,since the check hook IS INDEED PUNCHING WITH YOUR OPPONENT IS IT NOT...And ask Manny since Floyd was check hooking him all fight..and is the pull counter not punching with your opponent?

              Did Willie Pep run and use holding as a tactic for majority of his fights? Honest question

                  Completely agree

                  Thanks to the casual Boxing fans who jump on the bandwagon.

                    You guys are a ****ing joke. Pep hits and doesnt get hit.... and Floyd doesnt? Hes far and above the best at it out of the entire era.

                    Some people are biased and some are ignorant. Youre biased. The others who havent watched anything from before 2005 are ignorant.

                    SRL uses movement against Duran, a smaller fighter and its skill. Mayweather uses movement against guys 15 pounds heavier and its running. He completely outlands everybody but somehow that gets ignored.

                      Movement is bad now too. It was allowed up until 1995 right before mayweather turned pro.
