    Alright I have some questions for you I'm not trying to put you on the spotlight but I've always wanted to ask a Mayweather fan this.

    Who do you think would win in a 15 rd. fight Floyd Mayweather or Willie Pep?

    Mayweather vs. Benitez?

    Mayweather vs Whitaker? :nut

    Active: Pac Man, Hopkins, Kell Brook, Khan and J M Marquez

    All time: Hagler, Lennox Lewis, Calzaghe, Roy Jones and Hatton.

    all this is my fav to watch fighters and who i follow/followed and is not based on ability as my list would be a little different.

    Hot Dog is a ******* pretending to be a Floydette. Ignore him.

    To answer your question:

    I have no idea about Willie Pep, I've never really watched him fight.

    Floyd is competative with Pep, wins a razor thin decision.

    Floyd and Whitaker is a 50-50 fight, and boring as ****. Whitaker took advantage of agressive fighters who'd waste their energy swinging and missing at Whitaker, while Whitaker ducked and dodged. Floyd is too smart to fall for that ****, and wouldn't throw much unless he was sure he was gonna land. Whitaker would have hell trying to land on Floyd too, people forget he's never fought someone with Floyd's defense either. Floyd has the advantage in power, the speed seems about equal, Whitaker is a little more akward to his advantage, but Floyd is adaptable and very textbook to his advantage. I think it would come down to, who came in and was able to establish his fight, get his rythem going. That's why I really have it fifty fifty.
