    Both were great fights despite being one sided affairs. Between the 2 who do you think looked more impressive winning against a Mayweather? ;)

    Pretty wide gap there in terms of the quality of Mayweathers in the equation.

    Leonard's win was more dominant, but as Sal already pointed out, Roger was much better than his brother.

    Not much to add to what the other said, except that though Floyd Sr. got his ass whooped, he did mix in some beautiful defensive moves at times.

    Sr. was a head case who spent too much time running around goofing off in Grand Rapids in the wee hours of the morning instead of training. Still, he was capable of putting together rare moments of genius, unveiling the style Jr. would perfect and patent.

    somebody was actually impressed by these fights? Floyd sr was a punching bag so I would go with Pernell's win becuz Roger, as often as he had been kayoed, still had some life in him whereas Floyd sr, did not

    Roger certainly turned out to be a huge dissapointment. We had been promised a fierce black mamba. Roger was a dud
