    I would love to see this fantasy match-up. I believe Whitaker's defense was slightly better than Floyd's. However, people underestimate Floyd's power at 135. The dude packed a punch and was far more aggressive in this weightclass. His power along with speed would eventually wear down Whitaker.

    Easiest win of Pernell's life. Lopsided schooling. 12-0 UD.

    Mayweather blows vs south paws.

    Amazing fight, Pernell is the better defensive fighter but Floyd is the better attacker and has more power

    It'd be a technical dream match. I'd favor Pea but as mentioned, Floyd was much more of a force at 135.

    Floyd was a beast in the lower weights. Like 99%.9 of fighters (unlike Pacquiao) he lost speed and power as he moved up.

    Why is this even a valid discussion? The 2 are miles away, Pernell is in a different league.

    Would have been a great technical fight, but Sweet Pea would have decisioned Pretty Boy

    This is an extreme style mismatch. Seriously, Floyd would struggle to win a round vs Sweet Pea. 120-108 all day long.
