    To **** Whitaker off like he did, Floyd must be the ******* we all know.

    Behind Floyd's skills, there is a 30 year old child, immature, dumb as fuc*, a complete fool who doesn't show respect where he should, a egoist ******* who doesn't care about no one but himself, surrounded by the dumbest team I ever seen which goal is to make the most money... I can go on.

    Whitaker sounds like a jealous old fool. Who'd want to carry any of his bags anyway? You'd get ****ing surrounded by sniffer dogs and busted by the police.

    So is Pernell. Can you elaborate about "Floyd would beat Pea" please ?

    I think Floyd beats Whitaker as well.

    Floyd has more pop than Pernell, and is as fast at 135 as Pernell every was, and elusive.

    It'd be a terrible fight to watch though, a lot of posturing and not a lot of action.

    Mayweahter hs done a lot on paper. The big BUT is that he did so in the cheapest of cheap ways - simply by meeting the worst belt keeper at each weight generally.

    On the other hand - he IS a good fighter and there are not many that currently would beat him. BUT (again) fact is that he has avoided the ones that could. Hatton, Cotto, Spinks are three that he definitely need to meet if he wants such a grand claim to fame. I believe Taylor could be lmw, smw, lhw, cw and probably even hw champ as long as he looked for and was lucky enough so that there was a really weak champion at each weight.

    Floyd could teach Pernell a thing or two in the ring. But I don't think Whitaker can teach Mayweather anything. Floyd's a more complete fighter.

    At 135 Floyd was basically unbeatable. His punches had a LOT of pop at that weight and he was fast as hell. And Whitaker wouldn't have been the guy to beat him.

    You all agree on Floyd beating Pernell but none has described how he would.

    Come on guys. I am curious.

    he looked like **** at 135 and if it wasnt for the judges he would have a loss to Castillo.his other two fights at 135 were against Sosa and the second fight with Castillo and he didnt look good in either.

    So am I.
    While Floyd is now a great fighter he is not ready to be called a ATG.
    Sweet Pea would make this a very interresting fight. Defencifly he was imo slightly better but Floyd has a edge in power.

    if Judah can win 4 rounds and knock Floyd down then Whitaker who is 20 times better than Judah would give him a boxing lesson and you can bet that Whitaker wouldnt fade down the stretch.

    If Roger Mayweather could win 4 rounds and knock Whitaker down... (could have scored another knockdown in the 1st round, if he hadn't got caught himself, he clearly hurt Whitaker prior to his own KD).
