    Mayweather by UD. He was a shade quicker than Pea

    Mayweather at those weights. Whitaker's best chance would be at 135.

    Whitaker by decision at 135,140, 147.

    Judges would really have to pay attention because not much leather is going to land on either guy.

    May wins at 140 and 147 in my view, as well as sneaking by at 135.

    May wins at any weight and all of Peas fans say he was robbed and clearly won every round.

    With Mayweather’s low punch output, how is he going to win a decision? not plausible at all

    It worked at a higher rate than for Pea. Also the low punch output was with age.
