How would a Pea vs PBF fight at lightweight play out?

[klipsch speaker]

or at welterweight perhaps?

or at welterweight perhaps?

That would be an amazing fight to watch (or not). A counter puncher v a guy with the best defense I ever saw.

The guys from CompuBox punchstat could take the night off.

Pea would win a competitive decision in my opinion at lightweight. Although both had excellent defences, Pea's offense was better in my opinion. They way he would link a strong offense into an even stronger defense would be the difference between the fighters.

[IronDanHamza]

Whitaker by close but clear descision.

Lightweight would be better for action. Im gonna take a stab.

Round one: I see a feeling out process because both are used to being the hunted. They trade jabs. Nothing spectacular

Round two: Pernell takes a couple more chances and lands good stuff to the body of Floyd but tries to lean in and gets knocked down (flash glove touches, not hurt)by a left over his jab.

Round three: Pernell, a little embarrassed, presses the action from the start and Floyd takes a good shot backing into the ropes. He laughs it off. He ties Whitaker up most of the round and throws some uppercuts in the clinch.

Round four: Whitaker gets a little winded from the jabs to the stomach. Floyd uses his feet this round. Then Mayweather gets caught with a couple 1-2's backing straight out. Not much power so no real damage.

Round five: Pernell is obviously winded a little in the corner. Floyd's calm but still cautious. At the start there's a head butt (both are at fault). Floyd takes the worst of it and has a tiny cut. He continues the jab to the body. Whitaker realizes the speed difference is in Floyd's favor at this point in the fight due to slight fatigue. Some clinching but Sweet Pea is getting touched with the right.

Round six: Floyd almost trots to the middle of the ring. Pernell matches him with a quick strut. Floyd immediately retreats and catches Whitakers three punch combo on the gloves. They tie up and the ref breaks them. Floyd in classic fashion attacks right after the break and stings him with a right. Whitaker is hurt this time and tries to hold but only catches elbows. Ref stops action and warns Floyd to boos from the crowd. He acknowledges with a quick nod (still focused on a weary man in front of him). He is right back with a jump in left hook partially landing. Whitaker successfully ties him up. He survives the round with no more real damage.

Round seven: Duva is erratic in the corner while Pernell holds a calm face during the caos but still a little cloudy. The bell rings and Whitaker has noticeable swelling under his eye. Floyd attacks it with stiff jabs. Pernell throws a little caution to the wind and shoves Floyd to the corner while winging body shots. Some land but Floyd hooks his arms while shooting sharp hooks to the stomach. Round ends, Duva jumps up into the ring slinging water on his fighter and complaining to the ref about Mayweathers forearms to no avail.

Round eight: Floyd's feeling confident and scoots back to mid-ring with his chin tucked behind his shoulder. He's met by a wild right that he shrugs off. He then takes a left-right to the body. The punches lack the normal power because Whitaker's legs are leaving him. There's a clinch and a break. Floyd decides to remain inside and catches Pernell between looping body shots with two quick uppercuts on the button knocking his mouthpiece slightly out of his mouth. The Money Man backs away everso slightly and catches Sweet Pea with a lunging right sending him to the mat. Whitaker's hurt bad holds the ropes to recover. He's almost up around seven win Lou stands on the apron to prevent the inevitable. Pernell bounces his back on the ropes and beats the turnbuckle as Duva removes his mouthpiece.

Great fight. Instant classic.

Are you serious?

[RubenSonny]

Pea getting stopped by anyone is highly unlikely, let alone Floyd.

Whitaker UD Foreman.

I think this fight is destined for a decision.

I doubt it would be exciting either.

Personally, I would love to see it.
