Mayweather or Sweet Pea.

I talked with a fried today about who was a better defensive fighter — Floyd or Pea. I say Whitaker and he says Mayweather.

Who is right?

Neither of you are wrong imo. Since class of 1980(Chavez, Nelson, curry, ect) Those two are the best PFP fighters in whatever order.

What about Roy Jones?

Pernell used to get knocked down, he used to get hit allot, and did too much bobbing and weaving. Thats the problem with allot of defensive wizards; They do too much flashy **** to avoid punches.

Mayweather isnt a defensive wizard imo. He's a "pureboxer". He is going to outbox you, and avoid the punch at the last second. Similar to SRL, SRR, and Ali.

Except his defense is so sharp, that he has a variety of ways of avoiding those punches.

If we strictly talking about avoiding shots, he is the best of all time but it goes beyond that. Just embarrassing about 80% of his resume, is unheard of.

For me, he is the GOAT. We wont see a fighter more dominant than him ever!

Imo those are the 2 best PFP fighters since SRL. Sweet Pea has a few BS KDS if you go back and watch. I have seen every fight of his, and he was KD twice before winning title one was R Mayweather both were flash. He was not KD LEGIT again until he fought in 4th div vs Vasquez, and then it was just the two more flash KDs vs Hurtado plus the Tito one. All were flash, and all the others(Buddy M) were BS.

What about Roy Jones?

I put him right behind those two on some days, other days Chavez and then Roy. With Pac right behind. Roy's level of comp hurts him

That ***** got Thumped by Roger!

[Nash out]

Mayweather by a mile. Pernel was excellent, but not in Mayweather's league as a complete boxer. TBE Mayweather. Nash out.

That was a flash KD a legit one, but a flash if there ever was one. It came after Pea pulled down his trunks at end of rd. Which is a boxing tradition in the gyms ESP if your new lol. Ever tried to pull your shorts up with boxing gloves on? My brother got me in 1st week

Yea but he used to get staggered, and thumped on allot. He got ****** up by Oscar as well.

[Curtis Harper]

May had the superior offense
Their defense was similar.
