    Yes ive seen him fight, i saw him look rather average against paez and lose 4 rounds, i basically saw him lose 6-7 rounds against wilfredo rivera and i saw him struggle life and death with hurtado before the ko. Napoles would tool him.

    Mosley's competition at lightweight was ABYSMAL. And you talk of double standards?

    The guy comes on 'I rank Whitaker over Floyd'.

    It's clear he's a butt hurt Floyd apologist. **** off.

    Also you can't say 'Tim Bradley was a welterweight champion 30lbs heavier' because neither are true.

    Another window licker. Great :clap:

    :nono He'd previously taken the '0' of Abregu...who will know be deemed a relevant welter by the OP due to his win over Dulorme this past weekend ;)

    I give Manny 'winners kudos' for his showing against Timmy. Last three rounds he loses credit.

    To the OP; I take it you rank Luis Manuel Rodriguez over Roy, Pernell, Floyd, Manny???

    I've ****ing figured it out. Whitaker beat Floyd in the poll in the general, now someone made an alt to bash Pea.


    The same way Morales beat Mayweather in a poll, and now most of Team G hate Morales :lol:

    No im just here to show that bashing roy, manny and floyd is fun and acceptable, but if i dare say critize pernell in any way, people go ape**** mad and cry like kids. He was a great, but ridiculously overrated. I swear with pernell, people talk about him like he beat 10-15 hall of famers, i dont think you truly realize how overrated the guy has gotten.

    I can't believe we fell for another blatant troll attempt.. at best he's just an idiot on boxing and not a troll.

    It's not okay to 'bash' any of those guys, every fighter has their detractors and supporters.

    I know more than you about this part of the forum. Maybe your vitriol is better saved for the general forum?

    Floyd Mayweather is the most overrated fighter of all time.

    agree, where he ranks pound for pound is one thing, but strictly head to head, whitaker might be the very best fighter of all time
