    115-111 Whitaker. I can't see it being any closer then that! He was possibly the greatest pure boxer of all time, definitely up there.

    I think that is pushing a bit. He was too quirky to be considered an out and out great pure boxer.

    His technique worked for him, but was far from pure, in the classic sense.
