    they aren't the same fighter but there defenses are two of the best.
    plus sweet pea wasn't even at his best at WW like floyd

    Yeah, for skin color... or weight class...

    Whitaker is significantly more impressive than floyd.

    Yeah, the comparison is easy, which is why I don;t think either of the two would have much of a chance. Hearns can outbox either from the outside. And if you **** around and get in range of the straight right...:scaredas:

    i think floyd at lower weight classes was very similar to sweet pea.

    Go watch pernell again and tell me floyd is comparable.

    Floyd has his own attributes, but he is not pernell whitaker. Not at all.

    I know what your saying, but the comparison is easily made for a number of reasons.

    no he wasn't, apart from the being black and sporting the same haircut at one time they are different.

    floyd was more of an offensive fighter at the lower weights.

    eh, the way he faught azuma nelson(however its spelled), buddy mcgirt, ramirez he fights very similar to floyd. not really in dlh or chavez(only fights i've seen of him) but from highlights on his defense and his offense is pretty similar to floyd mayweather.
