I was going for pernell but now I am not to sure very close fight I did not think We would see another fighter more skilled then mayweather but this dude skill set is another level.
Ah James Toney one of the most overrated boxers ever, people saying he is as skillful as Mayweather or Sweet Pea, no way, look at all the losses Toney has, some to unknowns

Natural counter hitting Combos, zoning, spacing It's. master class
Rolling a punch And the Philly shell defense Which floyd copied more from toney thanhis own father James had a natural slick beautiful sway and counter hit that no other fighter has ever had The mayweather counter is more reaction based but also more robotic, doesn't get all his body into the natural sway and swing, therefore can't generate the power Floyd hits clean but very soft, looks good on tv but does no damage Toney is a real student of the game His natural sway and counter is all based on balance and body movement into power counter I guess it can't be taught to that level, you either have it or you don't
:rofl a guy with 6 title fights, 2 of which are fuc.king interim being compared to a guy with over 23 legit title fights, and undisputed champion at lightweight by fighting all the other champions. world titles at 135 140 147 154 and you want to mention him in the same breath as Pernell Whitaker ? :rofl WTF :rofl:rofl:rofl:rofl
