Was Willie Pep a running coward?

[Larry the boss]

If that's the case, then I'm sure you wouldn't have any issue pointing out a fight that would resemble this one.

why does the fight say Pacquiao and show Maidana?

and since you are so against clinching why didnt you cry about this?

[Wizardsh]

It's true; Floyd is today's version of Willie Pep. But today's WW class lacks an equivalent to Sandy Saddler.

Nope you are nuts and got to be on crack

[BrometheusBob.]

That video reveals far more differences than similarities. Based on the 8-minute clip, it's clear that Pep engages more frequently than Floyd, he utilizes masterful head movement to avoid punches as opposed to excessive clinching, his back never touched the ropes and he rarely turtles up or gets backed into a corner.

Granted, this was a highlights video. But it was the video Larry selected to demonstrate that Willie, a respected ATG, fights similarly to Mayweather and yet I, like you, don't really see that being the case. Again, I'm only judging from this video, and know very little about WP.

all of em?

lol

All the gay comments sound salty but yeah man, almost on some Wladimir/Povetkin level **** in this fight. Even Malignaggi had to be like dam bro what's with all this clinching.

I watch pep fights on a regular basis,he is one of my all time favorite fighters,Floyd in his lighter weights did press for ko's.Pep also never moved up 24 pounds in weight as Mayweather has

Here you go with the moving up in weight excuse.

Pep fought men his size, Floyd is fighting men his size.

I don't care how much weight you gain. Floyd can't make 130, 135, or 140. So what does that make him? A welterweight.

But Pep could make 126 until the very end.

How could I possibly find a fight that resembled that when Pep fights nothing like Mayweather and he fought no one who compares to Pacquaio?

Canelo is Floyds size?

Oscar was Floyds size?

Ortiz was Floyds size?

Baldomir was Floyds size?

Castillo,Corrales were floyds size?

No where did Larry state that Pep and Mayweather fight alike.

He asked would Pep be labelled a boring runner. To which the answer to that is a resounding yes.

[Wizardsh]

Although you have a solid knowledge of boxing history--I think a majority of your threads should be filed under a master thread called "My Boyfriend Floyd". Seriously, dude... Can you talk about anything besides Floyd?

Please don't feed the troll Larry doesn't know $h!t about boxing, he is a moron nothing but a wiki and boxrec troll

Yeah but Pep moved up in weight from 126 to 126 to fight "Sammy" Saddler.
