    Well at least you're honest that you prefer unskilled bums like Boom Boom to a master craftsman like Whitaker. Go to a Phillipino boxing forum if you want to talk Phillipino fighters exclusively.

    It's nothing to do with that, just to do with the point I'm making is clear as day. Pea was softer than Mayweather.

    Wow the thread has already reached that much. Not unexpected though.
    Good to see my friends back at it, it has been a damn while since last time.

    My mistake..I shouldnt have used the words "Not Impressed" as I definitely enjoy watching a boxing lesson beatdown like PBF-Hatton, Wright-Tito and RJJ-Pazienza. What I mean is that Im just more over with PBF than SweEt Pea..

    PBF is my no1 fighter today and I do not prefer or like Bautista fighting style but I do support him as a Filipino.

    Only Arguello is realy arguable and I have him a close second.

    I wouldn't disagree with that. Would you also agree that there is a better argument that Duran was a better LW than Whitaker, then there is that Arguello was a better JLW than Mayweather?(for the record, I have Whitaker as the top LW)

    Yeah I agree. Especially since I have Duran at number 1 LW. He was a force of nature at LW, and one of the most well rounded boxers I have witnessed.

    People comparing him to Ricky clearly have not seen Roberto Duran fight.

    Its very close in my opinion , i had Arguello at the top at 130 for a long time , but i have changed my mind over time to Mayweather. Chavez looked good there aswell, really good , but imo it is between Arguello and Mayweather
